Notes About The Poem
the poem below expresses the
reactions and awareness i felt upon
Reading Australias current (red room)
Writing institutions mission statement.?
Description whatever.? I do hope poetry
Gives them a visit.? They seem to be
Searching really hard.!
Red room insitu '
How to make poetry ( meaning-full?) Well
Thats a paradox? As i percieve.' Oxy-gen--less
And debilitating..A most limited field
that
Appears to me.' If poetry is not
creative by
Its very breathing out..Then I'm a wombats uncle..' I should not need to even write such out.! If poetry is
mechanical.? Though mechanical
exists.' Then i'll go to
The bar today to drink alcahol yet not
with the target aim of getting, by
real awarness ( kissed?) And i mean drinking to exess here.!
So don't come the 'raw prawn' with me'
either
The poetry (is raw,) and exciting in
origen from its spiritual seas.' If its
Not surging through your being.? Then you'll never polish it fine ! You might as
Well start fishing..Minus hook net; spear
Or line' and if you are of such denseness
You might as well also try.' To stockade the sky clouds before morning, and in the
Evening redecorate the skies.' For if you
Are their costodian, then you'll be rather
Long in the tooth, I rest my thoughts on
True inspiration now, before some
might attempt in getting it bought.'
For poetry is
Not a commodity, it always speaks
for itself..It cannot be turned on, or dissuaded
From, as if it is merely a physical
Self.! For those who think better, and count
Each comma and letter ? Go polish curds
Or ammass all worldly wealth as your treasure.)
