Promiscuous Poetry

By -
Rene Char was wrong when he said "a poem is always married to someone." A person may have a deep connection with a poem, but a poem is inherently a polyamorous creature and would not be confined in something as binding as marriage. At any one moment, many people will be in love with the same poem, and a poem doesn't do hierarchy. Free love for poetry!

E 1 A pitchfork holds out its arms, smiling. It stands fair and broad, but Don’t allow it to fool you. It would rip your guts out in a blink if it had any luck. 2 It was long ago a bosomy B, but Months of starvation shrank its arcs into stark hooks. Watch it from your window: It looks back on its young body (That willful Apollo) And sighs. 3 Many moons and a string of offspring go, it bawls bald and quaking sounds. Its form is a prison with iron bars, Its sharp pointing claws indict that night sky and all its stars. 4 It must quit living Or just start migrating To a city in which nobody knows its history. No sly fairy could do such injury, It will ambush you from any patch of grass. E xplanation: Wh e n I pick e d th e prompt of writing a po e m without th e l e tt e r “ E ”, e arly on, I had no id e a what to do. But th e n, I r e aliz e d that I could actually e xploit that rigid boundary to my advantag e . Writing with a confin
