NIGHT SONG (photomorph) & TWEETS (non-dream free verse poem) by Roswila

TWEETS

what do others know about
this isolating ignorance I suffer
of which I haven't a clue?
or is knowing not the point at all,
is it simply (or not so simply)
the living that matters?
what difference if I tap
the deepest levels
of loneliness, sure of my
unlovability when the sun's
at my back, that palm leans
at a charmingly loopy angle,
the sky signals of much
needed rain, and I'm about
to get to my feet yet one
more time and walk on,
the tweets of birds
tickling my heart awake
like tiny fingers

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), 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,
