Small Poems

Broken star

If I told her how I still needed her
If I said how I still loved her
Would she let me back in the fold
Would she let me back to her heart.

 

[Tzara]

Small Poem, After Keats

Beauty is truth, truth beauty,
and that is why I must never lie
to your unsullied honesty

and why, if it must be told,
I will tell you all about that other her
while you wince so charmingly, in pain.

i was in pain yesterday
would i be an artist
if i suffered
for another day and night?

Pep-O-Mint lifesaver ​

cracks between my teeth​

winter memories on my tongue.​

The above "After Keats" text can be easily turned into a poem. A pity since the theme is attractive. (A text doesn't have to be pornographic to be pathetic ).
