Poem became pumpkin 🎃
Mice 🐁 became squirrels 🐿
I went nuts
A walnut went to my head
Becoming a wrinkly brain
But then all turned out well
When I read Cogito E Sum.
Your commitment to poverty is apparent from your words in poetry . A few years back at the American Center in Bombay , I had gone through ‘BLANK VERSES’ of Earnest Hemingway. No word , no sentence , no simly, no metaphor . Only coma, column , semi-column , full stop, note of interrogation and note of exclamation and nothing else . Yet you can translate them in words in your mind . Put little stess on your minds and you will get what he wanted to tell through his ‘BLANK VERSES’ . No experiment on poetry ever on this line after him I saw . I tried to read Publo Naruda , the genius poet and Noble Laurate but he never experimented on such sides of poetries . Anyway , your commitment to poetry appears to be total . I like poetry . But I don’t know how to write it . Years back a few words I wrote , and a Poet friend of mine from Kerala told me it is a poetry , excellent one . Since then I decided not to write one as I was wrongly of the opinion that two poets can’t be friends at all . But I am not always wrong . You would be a poet of excellence in days to come . Thanking you . Please read my blogs , if you feel they could be liked , like them and moreover if you want to follow my blogs so much so good . My blogs are all about past , dead people , arts and culture of the past , about India , about my state about my Districts and my village but I want to create them all interesting . I don’t feel and think that I have command over language like English like you but anyhow I write and write and write……my blogs .
Wow! Passionate. To be reborn as poetry would be very blissful.

Ah, but not all poetry is created equal. What kind, form, imagery, diction, alliteration would you display?

You are right, Roger. Never thought about it like that.
I am fascinated with the Than Bauk form. I have written just two poems in that form. So ideally , I think Than Bauk.
