CRISSCROSSING CHECKERED

 

Crisscrossing checkered emotions

   are slopping about

in leftover dream thoughts from the past

 

Poetry is born of a gumbo

   of thought process

      emoting

into a metamorphacized product

that left untampered

      might even

be construed as art.

 

That could be a disaster

   to think I’m a poet

      but

vanity is humanity

   so I’ll indulge

in these subtle pleasures.
