Premium MemberRECITATION is a TWO WAY process

RECITATION is a Two way process

Words to say,
caught by the day
   in this  one-off
     ’ as is’ moment

images in sound
aloud
   voiced
spoken
 a unique
interplay
 ‘twixt
   you and I

A mayfly moment
  of the here &now
to hear
ethereal
 &passing
to create
    an impression
In your listener ear

   poetry lies long
undisturbed
& dormant
on this page

A dead object
‘til
the cadence
      of my English voice
    intones
& the process
   comes alive

Aye 'ee is fierce and hale.
Four mile to work,across the vale;
No slommakin' slattern 'ee,
Okkard as an itching flea.

Eee'd fetch hosses to boss's yard,
Garmed with mud,as thick as lard,
Cla'holt of 'em wiv a rope,
On is own,allus could cope.

Niver sees 'im vexed,or aggled,
Even if drenched and bedraggled;
In lightning 'e wore niver frit,
Though the whole sky wore fork-lit.

Grew

AFTER STYLE OF SAMUEL BECKETT ADDENDA 23(first posted Aug 2017)
to go or stay
or runaway
avoid delay

of my being here
of my being there
of leaving now
wondering how

of roundabout
of hereabouts
of this residence
a missing presence

in this empty house
in this empty mind
in making decisions
to just unwind

of being unable
to decide about
coming home
come home

to a empty house
with a empty mind
and not being able
to

nothing moves,
silence!
echos of voices,past
awake!
faces appear,then
depart!
a tear trickles,
slowly!
the music plays,
faintly!
emotion erupts,
again!

regret whispers,
in pain!

    a pentecost poetic
chiastic
  three stanzas long

the Spirit outpoured
     in the Day of the Lord

portents predicted&

the class
   of summer fifty five
left to ply
   their business lives

the office     partners just two
pens   pencils nearly-new

clerking the lowest
                of the low
daily drudgery
  reality soon shone thru'
down the cellar

a discourse     
  ornamted speech
    eloquent oratory aloud
seminal ideas
in pillars of poetics

a dialogue     delivered
     feelings aroused
         from slumber
by symmetries of sequences
soliloquised

persuasion     intertwined in poesy
