The Joys of Living a Poetic Life

Poetry is a threat if there are things in your system that are very hard to face because poetry is about being open and being spiritually, mentally, and emotionally well. A poetic life may mean sacrificing material overabundance, otherwise known as clutter, but you always sacrifice something, and to us, it's worth it.

Poetry is about consciousness and the pleasures of art. Other art forms can provide a bridge to your poetic self, if there are obstacles that need to be overcome. Yoga reestablishes and retrains breathing when parts of your natural self have been suppressed by a civilization that does not find those parts supportive of its values.

Crows and Sparrows

A slight gas exhaust in 
the kitchen breezes,
crows and sparrows,
cool, gold-green jungle;
dishes pile up.
Young women whoop;
drying plastic bags shift
over the sink. Crows caw.
Blackberries fall off
vines, overripe.
Sparrows rub their
vocal cords together
to produce autumn
sounds. Green tea
at the kitchen table
for murmuring 
reflections.
