J Is For Journey

A POETS PROGRESS Through a personal lens I think,then write Perspective's gaze alters,from night to night, As blotting paper,absorbs impressions Of poetry's learned and unlearned lessons; my anthology,my journey's log book From mainstream or the back lanes I took, An emphasis upon a favoured form. Those endeavours which I,on reflection mourn; I change,I alter or perhaps stand still In retrospective of a fogotten will, And yet,driven by this creative itch, Each day,I,this word tapestry must stitch.

Brian, I absolutely love this one. Every word really speaks of the experience of poetry I've had over the last 3 months. This poem stands apart from so many, resonating on quite a personal note as I try to untangle myself through poetry. I was hoping I could do so in double quick time, but sounds like it's a long term project from your poem!
