to split
wide open
entire
swaths
from
my brain
the pen
to chisel
out the bones
of my skeleton
closet emptying
to shift and change
the wound-like
into nourishment
cloaked truth.

I love the connection between the mind as a closet, and the body!
My favorite line is "the pen to chisel out the bones of my skeleton"
We are always evolving, shedding ourselves and refilling the gaps.
Sometimes it is painful; but to stop, is to die.
Your reminder is haunting.

I find myself wondering, based on this, as well as another of your recent shares, if your works are often so clever.
So clever in how they deliver of course. I find myself once stricken aback, with a bit of confusion, as the words carry a manner of organization I am not familiar with.
But then, one piece makes sense, and then quickly, it all comes to a whole. I like that. It's a small piece of a larger puzzle, in which all the pieces and the puzzle itself are all one in the same. :) |

Amazing. It is a rare gift to write with such depth of thought using minimal words. You got it.

Ming, to thee I sing.
This is a brilliant, subtle, invoking piece of art. I was floored at the rhyme scheme of lines 6 and 12. Your ability to stretch that....to pull that off with message and content intact is astounding. But!
I would expect no less from a Southie!
You're da' bomb!

news, doodles, fine art,
and tree pulp
standing at the desk writing about
an old man and the sea
or what could be
inside that maybe should be outside
Ming, it is just fun reading your work.
And that is good!
Peace! |

I love the complexity lying beneath your simple words I must admit I have trouble with your poems sometimes because their meanings are deeper than I can understand. |
