Premium Member Specificity In Poetry

specificity in poetry narrows down possibility. With this nonet, I portray my theme as a word stream. See it now narrow as it flows with exactness to the end. April 17, 2019

Exactness

exactness 
is not always
possible 
regimentation 
is not always
the best 
practice 
openness 
to the ebb and 
flow is what 
works best 
keeping an open 
mind is key 
to a peaceful 
coexistence

Painted

When you step back from the painting
and an exactness appears
being just as it is
inexplicable
then add nothing
or the soul of the image will be lost.
The ghost in the canvas
has revealed the ghost in your mind.
It has come through to be
an exceptionality.
When that happens
throw the brush away.


When Am I

when am I in a raging sea
when am I in a towerless keep
you see the armies flanked around him
labelled with exactness
when am I on a mountain ledge
when am I on a broadsheet
a dozen more of liberty
a number for the free
when am I by solitude
when am I by genocide
walking through my lonely streets
I ask 
when am I by me

Premium Member Recreating the Night Sky

No one has time to do anything tonight but work.
We are concentrating on the exactness of each movement.
Meticulously recreating the night sky, a united effort
No one wasting time to speak, whisper, all hands on deck.
The universe is counting on us patriots, so we work together.
Silently, stealthily, putting our differences aside for this night.

Premium Member Perfection calls another person a Perfectbilan

She is a perfectibilan Paula said
I laughed so hard, I hurt my head
No one is more of a perfectionist than she
Probably why she can never find an appropriate he

I am not kidding, everything in her world is precise
Her kitchen and bathroom are immaculate, which is nice
But she’s as much a perfectibilan as anyone
A stickler for exactness from sundown to sun

Drop the Brush

We may wonder if the painter sensed
that perfect revealing, that apogee,

and how it was understood
that all else,
anything now added,
would be a superfluous footnote.

When that exactness,
that 'just rightness'
arrives out of nowhere,
then
description and explanation
must stand just as needless prattle.

When the ineffable happens
it is time
to throw the brush away.

Love From Afar

A glorious yellow sun

 hot enough to burn, to

 Scotch all life out of

 existence. Yet if this

 tremendous ball of gas

 is of further distance into

 the vast. Our beautiful blue

 planet would be like a giant

 marble, a ball of frozen glass.

 This magnificent feat of exactness

 is not by chance, look up take a

 glance. Its perfection, perfect love

 from above.

Premium Member Being

I have said "being" a thousand times Without pausing to ponder The exactness of its essence Nor the wholeness of its wonder. Mr. Webster gives it meaning Far beyond touching and seeing. A thought once thought has formed itself And thus comes into being. If it can be, it is a being. It need not be seen nor heard. Mere existence gives it substance, Though it be a single word.
