Experiments in Short Form

I spoke to the poem
and the poem pushed:
get out
go do something
go see something
you gotta document
you gotta be a witness
the world isn’t gonna
tell its own story
get out of your pajamas
you need to talk to people
investigate again but this time
dig deeper than you have
before.

Last week, I published my first poetry collection, Reaching Marrakesh! You can find that here.

This is dedicated to the POM and all the poets on Medium who scratch at the MPP, knocking on the door, asking to be let back into the party.
