Kit Kelen #690 - another note on the method



690
another note on the method

live off
first anxiety

where will I find a shape
my line?

it's black
the night
we dream

and day is
too much lit

so bright
too much to see

must squint
if to see stars in the day

and join the dots
for constellation

where will I find my line
how follow?

no one tells me
I'm all ears

and then I see
the mark that's there already
must have been me made that

I'm away

lie with the lines first thing
and curl, uncoil

all fall in
queue
all raggedly

I'm well fed with

now I'm not saying inspiration
yet as I live and breathe

something will suggest itself
there's nextness in among it all

perhaps because I've been before

no time to wait
for praise

I scratch a way
and so

call a poem
in the end

that's how a draft's
let in

  1. the method
    sounds like
    it's the boss
    back in the box
    there's other lines
    than geometric
    the drawing
    draws us
