Little thoughts....

Forget the nation, forget the love

A poet without a poem is a creation undreamed of

Forget this feeling of Jekyll and Hyde

Sit back, Smile

As worlds collide.

this is lovely and reminds me of my favourite lines in all of poetry.

“take a writer away from his typewriter
and all you have left
is
the sickness
which started him
typing
in the
beginning”

very evocative and the brevity really enhances the statement.

good stuff.
