Trash or Smash Poetry

Trash or Smash Poetry

 

Trash or Smash Poetry
by Karyn Indursky

 

Is my poetry a singing song
in your melodic ear
or a nail scratching your fragile skin?

 

Is my poetry humming tunes
in your swaying hips
or a razor cutting your soft fingers?

 

Is my poetry harmonic
in your waltzing dance shoes
or nonstop tapping in a quiet library?

 

Is my poetry rhythmic
in your swinging jazz buffet
or car crashing buckling serenity?

 

Is my poetry applauding
your appreciate beautiful smile
or thunderstorm tears pouring in buckets?
