Poetry Tapas

While I haven't been writing a full length poem every day for NaPoWriMo, I have been busy with my Wicked Little Grooves micropetry on Instagram and Facebook. Some of them are up on Pintrest (I'll add the rest soon) but here a few of them. I'm also linking up to dVerse's Open Link Night. This was a fun and challenging experiment for the month of April. While I probably won't keep up the crazy pace, I think I'd like to keep writing more of these, say one a week. I'm open to musical suggestions if you'd like to give them!

A civilized veneer

makes poor armor.

Those who rely upon it

soon become thralls.

(Song Inspiration: Voodoo in My Blood by Massive Attack and the Young Fathers)

The scent of his latest culinary exploit

is only half as tempting as he.

I'm sure breakfast will taste

just as good cold.

(Song Inspiration: Hey Good Lookin' by Hank Williams)

Our fingers trace sigils onto each other’s’ skin –

the culmination of the quixotic magic

that brought us to this moment.

(Song Inspiration: Angels by The XX)

Am I afraid? Yes.

Don’t laugh. I like my order.

And what disrupts an ordered life

more than love?

(Song Inspiration: Hounds of Love by Kate Bush)

She grasps at phantoms

comprised of society’s expectations

and wonders why she weeps.

(Song Inspiration: Ripples by Genesis)
