Let There Be Kitchen Light!
The ramage is probably one of my favorite poetic forms, and this one looks at the simply pleasures of that midnight dip into the kitchen.
Mi playa, por favor
A prompt-fed poem looking at the horrors of an evacuation crisis in Afghanistan fed by a sudden change of direction in foreign policy.
Catcher of Things
The dreamcatcher is an American Indian craft item, and its symbolism can certainly serve as a muse for poetic exploration. Both dreamcatchers and poetry can explore the ethereal and imaginative realms, and like a dreamcatcher, the poet can draw inspiration from cultural symbols and rituals, incorporating them into our work to convey a sense of connection to heritage or the spiritual. Both serve as vessels for encapsulating the intangible aspects of life, whether it be the beauty of dreams or the complexities of human emotion. This poem is written in the rampage, a poetic form of 8 lines and 85 syllables that depends on an interior rhyme scheme and was crafted by Robert Bly.
Border Town Buy
The poem accounts for a Mexican border town antique store. Written in the Villanelle poetic form, the poem is about hope and the joy of discovery in vintage possessions.
That is Poetry
That Is Poetry explores the essence of poetry itself—how it captures fleeting moments, deep emotions, and raw truths. The poem reflects on language as an art form, shaping meaning beyond mere words.
