Sluggishness

I broke
my proper thumb
within venial borders
a shear from a bygone era

on your
tip of the iceberg
you spread a ruffle in my
bleeding shadows

we steer
the flow
on with the ebb and tideway
cutter with sawtoothed teeth
 
the scorn
of buoyant tethering
In a state of torpidity

5st PLACE CONTEST WINNER

Written: March 27, 2022

A BRIAN STRAND 1098 Poetry Contest
Sponsored by: Brian Strand


THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by the enigma so derived. ( Poem inspired by Poet Brian Strand Form)
