"Is it addictive?" Yes


Poem Artwork

Poets' Corner

for Franziska

I write myself into then out of a corner
As if with my own Christmas pie like Jack Horner
When I am written in I write right out again
Since I have stuck in my thumb and pulled out a plum

And that as much as anything is poetry
Explained as much as such a thing can ever be
This art which I practice yet which practices me
In a self-induced altered state of consciousness

"A drug" you say and ask "Is it addictive?" Yes
A corner with a door in the floor if you should
Go inside to ride the tide and find yourself good
At pulling plums in the corner from Christmas pie

If you care to and dare to be misunderstood
Well then Franziska we are poets you and I

Poetry is such a pleasure, composing, embellishing, surprising, full of wit we don't always expect meeting us half way
We've been sharing these journeys together and my friend looking back we've crossed worlds

thank you for dedicating this special piece to me, knowing its meaning I will certainly not forget and keep it with me as the fruit of our many ventures through out the years, I don't know how to tell you how much this means to me

unsere Freude an dieser Kunst ist etwas sehr wertvolles was unser Leben lebenswert macht
Our joy in this art is very valuable which makes life worth living

Love always, *F

"A drug" you say and ask "Is it addictive?" Yes

That sums it up in a nutshell
But then that's my opinion it's hard to tell.

Oh, dear me I got to close and now I've got it.
There is no cure that I know so here I sit.

Enjoyed,
God Bless,
Lew
