Summer Meeting

Summer Meeting

A Poem by ARLorenz
"

Written during a gathering

"
Radishes turning red 
Sunset suicide seems
like the pink of her 
blushing face 
 
Fans are turning 
in earnest, rowing
through the 
mucky air
 
Without success 
her chin is dripping 
with salty exhaustion 
wilting in the steam 
 
No meaning 
just a rotting root

.......wow! Four short stanzas and a world of meaning. The imagery is beyond vivid and exceptional. and the musicality simply flows. And to think that it's about something so simple, but you make it so profound. Well done!

~ so expressive... ~ after living in near-complete isolation for several years, i don't miss gatherings at all... but i like being on this site... ~ there's always a possibility of discovering a poetic voice which is distinct and rises above the din...

About
I'm unsure how to construct this About Me section. What do you want to know? I write about myself in an exaggerated fashion. This keeps me honest and critical. I don't read poems much but that'.. more..
