Paul--
I love to see your poetry when it pops up on oslist from time to time.
It is evocative for me. Thank you.

Opening Space
In this place there are only tones.
No bodily function yet movement
From thought that flexes
Non-existent muscles.
There are no nouns, only verb
Upon verb, Like fields and valleys,
The language spoken by
The dead, who have cast off all nouns
Is a landscape uttered here.
There are harmonics and rising pitch
That discords as pain, and accords
As love.
In this place there is only tone.
There is communion in notes with a
Melody of Meaning and it is possible
To touch another with the intention
Of a healing song.
Into this place, I unfold my wings of sound-borne light.

Hi folks. The warm invite to check the oslist archives led me
on a good journey last night. Some of the jewels I found were
poems, from the days of the "poetry celebration and contest"
that lived here for a long while.
Poems of open space! With a convenor naming a poetic "form" to
follow for that round of celebration.
Here is one, in the form of three stanzas of haiku.
huge pens and newsprint
like twigs and leaves on the floor:
fall forest clearing.
wall like wide canvas
bare, primed, awaiting fresh strokes
painted by our hearts.
circle of welcome,
like setting an old table
for neighbors and friends.
Here is one in a fun form using an alphabet. It's not about
open space, but is about writing a poem, kinda. (Without
launching a new Celebration formally, i invite you to try it...)
And I
Believe you too
Can
Do a poem, and
Even
Fairly
Gracefully – I
Have seen
Innovative
Juxtapositions
Kindly
Line up in
Many
New and
Original
Poems - it’s
Quite
Reasonable to get
So many words
To line
Up
Very
Willingly
Xcept if you get this far it’s sometimes trouble.
