Magnetic Poetry.

As I was about to go to bed last night, I got distracted by the magnetic poetry on our fridge. Standing there for five minutes, then ten, then longer, I rummaged through the words and thought and dreamed and constructed. I want you to understand: magnetic poetry does not showcase brilliance: rather, it allows a cliff, a jumping off point for it. That is, if you allow it to do so. It *is* quite artsy-fartsy.

white spring rain
and red mountains
like sugar cupcakes


can I hold it together
grow to wax ugly
for me it is like brilliant music


sensual lies
come the way of her smooth life


ask a good book
said in a thousand words
imagine when it speaks
it connects to your soul
