Taste

It appears to be
 that love of poem and poetry
 is a matter of feeling, emotional tasted grocery.
What tempts the pallet today
 may tomorrow cause dismay
 though writing in imagery at play.
All that we write and express
 is more of heartbeat's guess
 and our soul in undress.
Comes the intense release to words
 heartache and joy easily heard
 embraced by read and written stirs.
Listen, hear it quiet and loud, 
 the voices of once silent crowds
 released from their self made shrouds.
What is that crunch
 a mere revelation of some inner touch  
 hidden messages, not so much.
Express yourself some once sang
 divulge your inner inhibitions to the gang
 shared open handed writes of individual yin and yang.



I seem to lean toward three line poems of late
anyone know what category I should take?

There's truth to your lines, friend. Personally I wait for the right word, image, picture etc. If nothing comes to mind, I don't force myself to write., any more than I force myself to eat if I am not hungry. Thanks for stopping by to read me. Best to you. / M
