I write poems to pass the time, and sometimes it turns out well. Updates most weeks, usually on Tuesday. 2011 was a year for narrative works, generally using standard poetic tools. 2012 will be focused on homophonic and backwards/forwards pieces.

The Statue Spoke
Let's start the year with some homophones!
The Statue Spoke
Marble?
Marvel
A stone spoke
As tones poke
Fun at pigeon's
Funny pitch in
Parodies of flight
This lip inflects
These slips in flecked
Fated granite
Faded grand, it's
Imposing
In posing
For so long a time
He's never grimaced
He's never grim as
The wanderers
That wander or
Fall to pestilence
(Fault to pest elan)
Persisting
Per cyst in
Stony permanence
