Jan. 14th, 2016 09:51 amI have been self-deprecating about my writing knowledge I know.
The reason is that as a craftsman of many years I am more than aware of how years and training is required to get good at artistic ventures. Whereas all I have with writing is enthusiasm and a creative background. But right now at least, that’s fine with me because I am having a blast.
We have been picking from 1-3 words from a box and then free writing using those words.
For this poem the words were ”only & how”. There is no background explanation to this poem at all. It just came out this way.
Only on top of the Mountain
Only look to the left
only horses and hogs
what matters is how they are arranged
pink, piebald, white
bristling nostrils, flicking ears, screams
no....put them in order.
The Mountain is how we arrange
how we want to see them
under their hard hooves is how.
