Figure and Form [jana]

figure and form
definition, imposition
negative space
relative grace

delicate line
crumbled edge
liquid element

reflection, perception
perspective, invective

the discipline of hand, eye
mind and train of thought
falls next to the discipline of fasting
refusing to be controlled,
patrolled by flesh
cravings
habits

refusing the gnawing of me
dwelling in meaning to be

  2. Intriguing.

    The poems with the least words often provoke the most thought.

    Yet we love to hear ourselves talk.
