World Poetry Day


Jesus!
Just found out it's world poetry day.
Uncertain if this is a yearly event.
But it should not be missed.
By a poetry writer.
Who writes poetry.
From time to time.
Which become songs, sometimes.
Years later, in some cases.
Haiku it if you have to.
Counting syllables with a vibe.

Reach out and ask.
Demand the answers you need.
Pull up your contacts.

Five.  Seven.  Five.  Vibe.

The best are curious about the right things.
Not untrusting and hovering.
Like a shepherd or tour guide.
More like an open range.
The run of the place.

But I got no damn poems today.
On world poetry day.
