Poetry As a Way to Express Otherwise Incomprehensible Phenomena
I had written several poems last year, but what good does it do if no one else can hear or read them?
The City
March 13th, 2024
Look, there lies the city
Where the least free live,
To which freemen from afar
Scurry, in a hurry, worried
That management might scold them
For being five seconds late.
A Man and His Canoe
March 13th, 2024
See, what a man can do?
His dog by his knees
In a dented canoe;
Here one minute,
‘Cross changing waves
Flows an unchanged spirit.
Monsters
March 17th, 2024
Horrid monsters
Sacked our cities;
Can’t be bothered
To reconquer,
Rather turn them
Into prisons.
On the Road
March 17th, 2024
A roe deer ran
Swiftly ‘cross the road
And crashed into a fence;
A swaggy cat
Lay resting by my feet.
I made a friend.
Risen
March 20th, 2024
Ancestors
Of distant kin
Dismissed the stars
To look within;
When winter came
To fiery hearts,
Their kind rose up
To godly arts.
Visions
March 20th, 2024
Myself, I make quiet
To hear the music
Conducted by my mind;
My room, I keep it dark
To see the glory
Of mankind.
