"Time share"


Share time
with, not spend cash
on children. Family
that shares together forever
fulfilled

Michael
Please send this cinquain poem. I am not very happy with this though. It is not like your original writing. It sounds like a found poem.

Thanks, Siva, for reading, recommending,

and for expressing your concern - I understand, and I will now clarify:

True, this cinquain-poem generated after reading another poem - just as poems are after a painting, or memory, or topical, etc..

I followed through, and brought forth another poem, and in its own form - albeit not a free form, but a pre-existing syllabic fix form.

One creativity giving birth to another : à la ekphrasis.


Siva,

I will now try to share some time on your snake poem.
Still haven't received a response from Mojave.
Deadline is tomorrow, the 7th.

Siva, if you are not already representing another board with a poem
how about your snake poem?

Thanks.


Sincerely,

8)
