I am starting this blog because I used to be afraid of poems. If you've ever been turned off of poetry because your book of poems starts out with a section written by some intellectual who says, "the dissociation of objective reality.........", (???) then this blog is for you.
I like simplicity, sounds, to string together words to create an image of everyday things.
Take for example, William Carlos Williams' The Red Wheelbarrow:
so much depends
upon
a red wheel
barrow
glazed with rain
water
beside the white
chickens
Nice poem about a wheelbarrow, very original.
