Ars Poetica April 4

Poetry

the ink will dry
              faster than
tears fill the ocean.

writing for art
             feels better than
writing for emotion.

so I think I
             will write my poetry
for sake of poetry.

removing the weight
              of love, hate,
joy, and sorrow.

Moonlight Muse

by Serena Mossgraves

As the moonlight illuminates

the world around me,

that is when my muse awakens.

Though the whole world

is closing its eyes,

and I find myself wanting

to settle in weak and weary…

          I pickup the pen

            and bleed again .

into the poetic,
pick my pen up
and let poetry flow.

Involuntary Movements

by Patricia Harris


Remaining still is easier said

than it is for me to do,
I am made of gelatin and
thoughts straight from the
ocean's waves.

Involuntary Movements
are almost expected
when you are as chaotic
as I.
