PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

The long ones

are when I can’t

get the right words

so I just keep rambling

on and on and on;
the good ones

when there’s clarity

is be good and concise

maybe I need

to go to Japan

and study haiku/tanka

then I could

get it down

in 3 lines or 5 lines;

a short little burst

like Poof!

and then

go out and have a meal

with a clear conscience

knowing

I did my day’s work
