Notes About The Poem

Poetry Obsession

obsessed with incurable hope 
to prose
who knows
one day 
the stars will align
putting nobody 
on the front 
of a book 

swing in slow motion
of day and night
under the purple veil of the aurora,
Owl with oxblood claws
flying, warbling

vivid and astir shades 
during this season
slipping through
the wristwatch band
the leaves were rough 
and ruffled by the fall 
breeze

carried ample outbursts
In October, 
huge gems gave 
many willing 
reasons
because if the waist fits too
surmising you can be
somebody

You can easily switch from prose to poetry if the muse is kind, You have much kindness because your poetry is always first class
