It’s Word Poetry Day, today!
And I have already put some words together –
not about the weather,
though I could do that,
not about the tweeting of the unknown bird,
that sits on a branch
of the tree
just above me,
and harangues me for my presence
when I could be elsewhere.
No, my words were upon the subject
of, ‘being a conversationstarter,
twisted conversationstarter!’
Well, poets must approach
all subjects
when the time calls for them to do so.
No? Oh! Is it just me?
