Prose Poem

I went for a walk. Clarity was the aim.  Distraction is to blame. Without focus, we’re left watching squirrels in trees.

Micropoetry

Chartreuse mist of meaning

Governed by a twisting vein

Alarms and developments

Events that spawn,

Persist through dawn

As the rooster woos the day

The Deceiver

Wrapping coils, to unsuspecting kin

Begs spurred from hunger

It spies an otter wading

As parricide appears

Devalued Glimmer

Stripes of outer pulse

Glorious repercussion

Demystification of golden halls

I wander

Through them all

As the macabre raps

At a window by the bed

Best leave curiosity for dream

Only God knows what’s behind the pane

Cats in a window

Observing other cats

They see them as free

They want that so badly too

But cats can’t understand

The woes of parenthood

Gems washed with care

Bubbling brilliance everywhere

A prism of hope for all to share

A gentle gliding

Dreaming in

Lyrically unwind

Blight or chorded delight

Sustain-Refrain-Rhyme

When lost for words

In music, something you’ll always find

Haikus

Fumbling out

Enclosed mental pen

Secrets roam

Portobello, yum

Savoring the taste to tongue

A La Deriva

Spiny reaches out

Ossein dreams converted

Exoskeleton

Gogyohka

Body

Armor 

Guards blood  

stained interior

Six Word Lines

Feline Shaman purrrify all their litter

InfanTILE, applied with paste, new foundations

2 Cryptich poems and a definition of

A Cryptich is a three lined poem.  Each line contains one and only one word.  Therefore the Cryptich contains a total of three words.  Each word should be unrelated, or at least a third or fourth cousin removed from each other.  These poems seemingly are chaotic, random and/or blind.  But somehow, like a good riddle or puzzle, rhyme and reason, solutions and resolutions appear in this cryptic 3 word puzzling poem. That said, the three words may be just 3 random words.  The poet does not reveal his/her intention to the reader.  The answers form from within he/she who reads the Cryptich.  

Plastic/ Vulgarity / Chlorophyll

Ambrosia/ Elevator / Pomegranate

I will be including more and more of these neat little poems from time to time.  If interested in a wide variety of this type of poetry,head over to twitter and either search #cryptich or follow @cryptich
