Steep – Verse Us (Poems by Me)

There was a stage in my life

When I accepted what was told me.

Thoughts etched, the acid leaving indelible patterns;

Currents and tides of being

That invited loyalty.

Tastes of doubt’s power

left me dispossessed – finding new songs,

vainly pressing my own.

Tramping not so slow

warned – unheeding.

Unsensing to the shivering fault,

I’m left to wonder

which rocks on the beach

found their smoothness the right way

and which did it all wrong?

Verse Us - Poems I write: haiku, senryu, mesostics, free verse, random word constructions, I might even use rhyme or meter once and a while.
