The BlueIris Semi-Nightly Poem Thread, 9/13/07 Bonus
Edited on Thu Sep-13-07 08:33 AM by BlueIris
—from "Deadletters"

"Deadletters 13"

In the dignity of grief's
Measure feet
Drag the dust.

Go, rhythms, have a life.

Burden the deadletter carrier.

We trust your riddles. You
Are our pieces, gathered, errors
Patterned.

—Stan Rice

2. I confess; I really love this little poem.
I know many people hate Stan Rice's poetry. I like some of it. Flame away.
