Write Out Loud

on each new poem        i aim to start
right in the middle           of the page
then all around   i move each thought
til all my senses                   i engage

my story grows      as there-and-then
built up from bits      of here-and-now
thus it spreads         in two dimension
no third one will          the page allow

for that      i read    between each line
and watch an image       there appear
thus bringing in          a sense of time
and detailed picture        coming clear

but to this page     the words are tied
so read    out loud    to set them free
so other minds          then are stirred
and their own picture      there to see
