Claylike Poems | Examples


Dreams

Dreams

Latest dreams: loaning a 
small sum of 
money to 
the daisy patch on the 
east side of
the front yard; at an early stage in 
development preaching not elementary language to
claylike people; watching expressionlessly bark and 
stick ****; furthering the cause of
adverse effects (it’s better to not live a 
lie); encouraging the black birds on
the cement path out front to
never go after 
money, benefit, profit, power, and 
so forth by 
unprincipled means.

windblown giant
turbulent tornado
blazing a sharp path

kicking away cars
rolling whole houses
pure devastation

hiding in culvert
my face in wet claylike mud
i recite prayer

New Mexico~

Kaolin ceramics shelved for display
A framed mirror suggests a window into time
Fortifications in a continuum surround this fortress

Inside a Southwestern style is secured
Bulldozing nature for architectural delight
Rich in warm tones and textures of stucco
Baroque oval portals lead into substructures

Endearing pine stripped.....stained to perfection 
Strategically placed beamed ceilings finesse 
Whitewashed antlers hang above a fireplace
Not a hunters home but a setting of one once known

A water well stands with an antique pump 
As an unyeilding sun drenches the broken claylike ground
Genuinely revealing a life long past
In Beautiful New Mexico a Southwestern home  is found





~This was inspired by Brian….and his Cameo piece~I hadn't used or seen the 
word KAOLIN in some time...and it reminded me of the west....hence, I used the 
word first and went from there~
