a poem is -------------------------------------------
a poem is
a glitch
a stitch unraveling
searching
for that one
reassuring pulse
that one beat
promising
to balance
continuity
in its hands
its embrace
under one torn
wound
open
for all to
consume
we all bleed
poetry
we all expose ourselves
at some point
on this page
and i
am no exception
i give myself
to you
A poem is to each there own, room for vast interpretations. "We all bleed poetry", and that's the truth. Vulnerability stands behind great works of art because the writer not only puts words down, but they intact with each poem a piece of themselves. To me this poem reads well and helps me get a feel of the heart you put into it. Consumption of such great works as this leaves me reassured that there really are people who feel the poetry and don't just write it. Thank you for your wonderful lyrical contribution.
I favorited this one. I really really like it. I love poetry that is about poetry. :)
It has such a great rhythm and I like the internal rhyme at the beginning.
My favorite part happens to be something I have heard before in the poetry of others... so although it is a tad unoriginal, it still fits really well into the work.
"We all bleed poetry" is a concept/image I have read before. However, I love that you then expand and speak about exposure as well as giving yourself over to the reader.
Thanks for posting this one and I look forward to reading more from you.
