mashing up poems to find something new
It was really hard to stick with a mash-up and not get distracted by other drafts/possibilities. I made myself "finish" a mash-up though. Title and first two lines: "I had no intention of bringing those boys home"
I remember damp hay, the sky the night
in the big cat enclosure, called it a fever
Ha, but the possibilities are the point! I like those weird lines, though!
She talks with those hands and coffee cups
flips them up some good
to stop us. Wait!
then she opens them up a pluck
like a book just right
or a butterfly’s back
out of ferlinghetti's quiet life
mowers spitting the morning
where rain bursts fire
our timeless sunshine days
she rides automatic flames
heading up siren nightmares
How fun is this?
