Poet' Choice

Poet's Choice
often poets
have their choice of images
turkey,
duck,
goose, 
or chicken.

language is 
cooking
each poem
has its own
smell

as the flavors
and sounds boil
reduce 
into an incense. 

people
are often
surprised
when they  visit
the i
at my poem desk.


why do
i wear an apron
and a chef’s hat ?

the pockets
you see
are  perfect to hold pens
and 3 by 5 cards  aplenty
and a  metal ladle 
to stir
faithful
the sauce
of my compositions.
