Snatching Straws

Snatching straws falling tilting precariously through notice toward doom inverted caricatures of marionettes shine & community supports & grips divine stumbling wild madness shaking out clean time & its witness upland coarse. Written: July 03, 2022 A Brian Strand Premiere Choice Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Brian Strand NOTE:THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE using spaces&breaks without grammatical symbols ,the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and responds thus making this enigmatic form a two way interplay & interpretatIon unique to the moment& changing according to mood is inherently variable.

Not easy to compose and with this heat I would find it difficult. But you wrote a great poem.
