Trash or Smash Poetry
by Karyn Indursky
Is my poetry a singing song
in your melodic ear
or a nail scratching your fragile skin?
Is my poetry humming tunes
in your swaying hips
or a razor cutting your soft fingers?
Is my poetry harmonic
in your waltzing dance shoes
or nonstop tapping in a quiet library?
Is my poetry rhythmic
in your swinging jazz buffet
or car crashing buckling serenity?
Is my poetry applauding
your appreciate beautiful smile
or thunderstorm tears pouring in buckets?
