A Blueprint For Poetic Work Poem by DM W

A Blueprint For Poetic Work

Rating: 5.0


O photograph the first fall of snowflakes!
Capture the sad, softened light of the moon.
Let the inner realms glow and radiate.
Let dreams unravel from the unconscious.
Let plain particulars breed rich metaphors.
Embrace change.Fear not the lightning flash of chance.
Balance structure with improvisation.
Avoid angelhood and emotional flows.
Forget well honed techniques at your peril!
Watch pale shadows transform into bright flesh.
Focus singularly on the details.
Focus on the seed and not the flower.
Wipe the sentimental from memories.
Erase the persona from the poetry.

A blueprint indeed and if followed and adhered to great truths to be crafted and revealed. A superb and originally well written Dominic, Artistic in its own right. A full score given just for your imagination alone. A poem quickly added to my favourites too. Many thanks and thanks for sharing.
