A metaphor for the poetic process???



dry land in a dry season
the satirical sun etching
its discipline upon the exposed flesh
of naked writers staked out,
for its steely purpose and pleasure,
upon the sun soaked sand


wet land in a wet season
the ironic moon maddening
naked poets writing naked
verses of a sun dried time
remembered in the rain

I do like the contrast, I can relate, often write naked and I'm also partial to being staked out LOL...balanced to prfection.

A true poetic voice singing under the sounds of excellence ~ and rhythm of harmony ~ flows through the lines of "naked poets".

Healthy Creative Life, Poet!
