Unfolding

Shay's Wordlist 

in the museum i search for a luxury

something whole, not yet evaporated

like the narrow streets of my memory.

outside my window a newspaper flutters

flipping its pages into the wind

like a witch's spell forgetting to close.

in some corner i find myself

unfolding, returning to the place 

i left whole / eons ago.

 

Shay's "Wordsworth" Word List

Lillian is hosting the Pubsters today in the dVerse Poets Pub.

I think most of you know Shay aka Fireblossom the poet. I published this on her 'Wordsworth Word List' challenge yesterday!

Ya got me whipped

into a frenzy

literally howling

at the moon

genius of you

i must admit

[your flip side

being madness]

an endless

looping repetitive

mashup of

pomp and circumstance

and of course

because of you

my poem

remains unfinished

 

No Shakespeare in Baseball

 

there's no cryin'

in baseball ~ no Wee Willies 

they wear disguises

try makin' us believe

they're a-listers

them and their bamboo bats

call up the x-men 

mutants from the minors

launch fireworks and flyovers

batter up and just play ball!
