Caveat: Poem #3533 "And it went like this..."

#Poetry #Nonnet


It has happened many times before.
I compose an excellent poem
during the drive home from work
(between potholes, kinda):
all in memory.
Then I get time,
I sit down:
the poem's
gone.

Caveat: Poem #3531 "The noble tale of the left-handed whale"

#Poetry #Nonnet


among the wooden whale-ornaments
one whale was seeking his own path
he was pointed opposite
to the other creatures
his left-handedness
mysterious
making him
lonely
fierce

Caveat: Poem #3502 "Automotive epistemology"

#Poetry #Nonnet


"Ice is possible," the dashboard warned,
in blue letters. "Drive carefully."
I looked out at the piled snow.
How did you think of that?
What's your data source?
I asked the car.
No answer.
Inside?
Ghosts.

- a nonnet.

Caveat: Poem #3499 "Accidentally and then on purpose"

#Poetry #Nonnet


I've never actually used Zoom,
despite the pressure to do so.
I survived the pandemic,
ignored invitations.
And now, at this time,
I've decided
it's a hill
I'll die
on.

Caveat: Poem #3494 "The ghost of the muse"

#Poetry #Nonnet


everything has now been written.
what's left is to write it again.
then you can read what you wrote,
thinking: i read this once...
now i've made it mine.
the future folk
will read it,
either
way.

Caveat: Poem #3492 "Viscous world"

#Poetry #Nonnet


I've been demotivated lately.
With that computer crash last month...
annoyed with failing gadgets...
like: too much inertia;
like: walking through snow;
tasks overwhelm;
I end up
sitting.
Dull.

- a nonnet.

Caveat: Poem #3489 "Escher in his Alaskan cabin"

#Poetry #Nonnet


Since moving here, I often have dreams
which are filled with plumbing problems.
They represent vague worries,
or grim anxiety.
The pipes resist me.
The leaks persist.
By small drips,
failure
looms.

- a nonnet.

Caveat: Poem #3484 "Sea craters"

#Poetry #Nonnet


This picture I took is in color,
although it looks like black and white.
In the ice on the water,
the patterns intrigued me.
The tide, coming in,
lifted the ice:
a moonscape
appeared,
grey.

- a nonnet.

#Poem

Poetry Through Code
Visually for the eyes to the roam
For the ears to stumble
Upon the words that are being told
The algorithm that is speaking
The emotions that are leaking
As these entities aren’t alone
