-oh, writing process- on Metaphor


in my apartment on a dance-the-poetry-within-you day

I never know what is going to emerge that day, 
ever, always a surprise

survey, touching bits, the movement churns 
thoughts, feelings, ideas, memories
surfacing

after, yes, I could write a whole piece
expand concepts and feeling-in-form
offer a more complete essay, sashay into & around

but the initial arousal
the first moments of slips of gatherings 
of thoughts, ideas, feeling-in-form

that's what's here
