Should I HaveShould I have spoke too soon--   
What future news might undo?  What miscues might cloud our view?--  What illusions might we hold true?--  Should caps and twigs be jewels?--  Should whales rise red moons--  Or should I have spoke too soon?   
But, bounding as you do,  And bound as I to you,  Might history make some room  And not be split in two,  Bound as it is to the words we choose--  Sometimes too soon.   
Should I have said--I love you. Should I Have

I'm TellingSunny weather to think you through.  In any other ‘gether might I make less of old news.   
Funny weather when the sky seems blue,  But not the breath that leaves you  To perfume across endless cold night blooms.  … so too knew …   
Funny weather that weighs down the brume,  And settles into pools where we please view  Only all that they do.  … reflecting you …   
Telling whether I wait or resume,  Walk-race-pace-balloon or do-I-belong-to   
Sunny weather—  The place I came to  To think you through. I'm Telling

smalltalk slowtalk  smokes down the sidewalk,  motionless stop.   
walk.   
on silent-sulking seizures,  sneakers of trance--  fall by gravitational chance   
on relapse        dance   
like ours on  smoke stalks--  stopless down the sidewalk   
smalltalk  stalk like  breathless when it stars. Town In Translation

Restate My Assumptions

Wed Feb 8, 2006, 5:01 PM
Restate My Assumptions

1. Poetry is audible; it is music.
2. Poetry is intellectual; it is enigmatical.
3. Poetry seeks an emotional or philosophical truth.

4. All poetry desires to approach perfection in all three aspects (previously mentioned), simultaneously.
5. Poetry exists only in the mind, and can never be replicated. Readers are co-creators with writers.

6. The one perfect poem does not exist.
7. Poetic perfection does exist, and has been experienced. Every true poem reaches perfection, in some mind at some moment. Greater poems achieve this with greater regularity, in greater diversities of minds.
