so for the month of august, i have joined this mailing group that mails a postcard a day to someone with poetry on it. you sign up to be part of it and the idea is that everyday for the month of august someone will send you a postcard with original poetry on it. i have been sending mine out and so far i have gotten 3 postcards. i thought i would share the poetry i have gotten, and then continue to share through the month as i continue to get them. bare with me about some of the words, the handwriting isn't always the best. if i'm questionable about a word, i will put a question mark next to it.
poem one has no title:
Begin with a bright
curve
a bold line drawn
like Vienna in gold
on your upper lip
the scudding(?) clouds piling
for seduction
round and loose
While innocence sleeps
unwakeable
on your neck...
poem two: First Tourist Sight
The dervish(?) begins whirling
Arms spread out
And a little red cap atop
his head
he quickens his pace
his skirt slowly rises above
his boots
until it balloons around his
figure
he transforms into a white
blur
no longer human
in joyous worship
poem three: Ghost Memories
Wearing mist shrouds
they rise from Earth
to haunt the muted sky
echoing the past
