| Techno Poet im the new technopoet i read lorna goodison while I pause during stop signs and lights book propped on the steering wheel imbibing poetry at other waits the drs, grocery lines, all hum drum places. im the new technopoet i carry a lap top in my biggest black purse while others warn that computer is too delicate it has got to carry heavy words therefore it might as well toughen up now. im the new technopoet i imagine, create, write on the run dodging the busy demon with stern rebuke and mazes that keep you lost i write to really live. Too Bitter and Too Sweet For BPC & JBB This poem is too personal about how we met Autumn was coming Momma had cancer but we didn';t know August to December I hurried our love This poem is too revealing about how we felt Winter arrived and the cancer battle began When you two were introduced mother and boyfriend there was love and laughter This poem is too visceral about what we shared metastasized cells attacked her sorrow attacked me pain kept us frozen and Spring wasn't welcomed in our hearts. This poem is too intimate about what happened later when my Momma died. Summer brought grief humbling my spirit. Bittersweet intricacy of parental loss and romantic gain. |
