HEATED WORDS (photomorph) & BUSINESS (mixed format dream poem) by Roswila

BUSINESS

my young woman friend
announces her intent to print
a colorful volume
of her own poetry and photos,
charging a reasonable price

and today's question
enters here: why do I care
and then even say
that she'll be quite disappointed,
my past experience the proof,

since I'm actually rather grateful
this is no longer any business of mine

PLEASE NOTE: in most browsers you can click on the above image for a larger version. Also, the photo accompanying a post is not necessarily meant to illustrate it, but to reflect some small, even slant aspect of the verse, similar to Japanese haiga (illustrated haiku).

There are many other sorts of posts on this blog. I indicate which are about or influenced by dreams. Some non dream focused posts are book reviews, "regular" poems (some by other writers, as the above is), scifaiku, writing exercises, Tarot haiku, photos, haiga, and so on. However, most of those are in much older posts. There's a listing by month going back to early 2006, at the end of the sidebar.

until next time, keep dreaming,
