List Poem

Picture
Exactly that, a list poem or catalog poem, is an inventory of the selected topic including items, people, places, or ideas.  Look for it here:

Inventory by Gunter Eich


Security by S.M.(M).L.

All these things make us feel secure:

​Modern science
Modern medicine
Electricity
Indoor plumbing

A cell phone like a second brain
where symptoms are alleviated every day.

Symptoms of sickness
Of hunger
Of pain
Of love

An emptiness like an all-consuming fog
where images and words suffocate.

Stupid to think we are immune
Untouchable
Isolated
Safe

An assumption that we are safe like a child tucked in
while the house burns around them.

    There's a poet in my soul; she's always been there, but is often neglected.  I'm letting her out here.  I hope you will too.  Here's some unsolicited advice:  When your poet speaks to you, just let it out, there's something there, I promise you.  Here you'll find ideas about how to hone your craft as I practice mine and lead you to some of my favorite published poems and poets.
