the psych-cottage

the psych-cottage

found small cottage

to write poetry with

my dog.

took noting with me

from the world

but soon the noises

and  human

toys that distract

from

being

slowly

crept in like

giant earth worms

in the night .

Poet, Somehow and in some way this reminds me of Rod McKuen's style. Nice personal images of what's happening at that particular moment and very personal like you just told only me. ginga

Fantastic! I really enjoy your style. I enjoy the fact that you have impact in so few words

Hi Poetography, This work soundet very familiar to me. We go to places where we think we can find the silence which we need to make our creative juisces flow. And then, after having found such a spot, the life of sounds starts to kreep up on us... Realy enjoyed reading this lovely written work! Greetings: Sammylin.

I like the imagery of the earthworms doing their work...gradually eating away the haven you were promised. Nice work. Thanks!

Strange but interesting write. The title "psych-cottage" takes one on a mind trip trying to figure out why the cottage was not the haven expected. Noises of the mind would be my guess

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
