Whose woods these are
springs right to mind
as writer I admit
I find
I’m compelled to sigh
my muse is smitten
by words I wish
that I had written.

Memo to brain:
heed this sign
a walk becomes plod
hunched and bovine.
It behooves you to skip
stop dragging your feet
tap mental toes
to some irregular beat.
Indulge in some jigs
whirlies and prances
a writer fares ill
if her brain never dances.
(And maybe that is true for all of us.)
Thanks yet again to the S.W. Berg Photo Archives.

This is the writer me
in aspect toothachy
I feel all hewn and flat
where are my muses at?

What is voice?
I have wondered.
How do words become
voice?
Then I read the words
of Emily Doe
soundless to my ears
but in my head
jackhammer
chewing concrete
Rachel
weeping
green-black thunder
of torrid summer storm
voice
He raped a writer.
Words are all she has
voice
anguished
solo
over the chorus
of the bloody writhing
the siren-screaming
together
now
coming at us.
Words are all we have.
Will they be
voice?
