Another Themeless Poem

Post by daka »

A POEM WITHOUT A THEME

Can you imagine
A poem
Without a theme?
The theme of
That poem
Would be
The absence
Of a theme.

This poem
Tried
Unsuccessfully
To be
A poem
Without
A theme

Sean Hunt Windermere 2015 April
If you don't become the ocean you will be seasick every day....Jikan (aka Leonard Cohen)

It's comin' from the feel that this ain't exactly real, or it's real, but it ain't exactly there! . Jikan

The
trick
to say
with a
few words what in fact
is meant to be a picture
showing what the words
would name: Thumb up.
