To An Almost Unknown Poet As Of Now Poem by Michael Shepherd

To An Almost Unknown Poet As Of Now

Rating: 2.4


Poetry and that's without quote marks
poetry is the place for the big things
and long may it be
but that would be an inappropriate dialling tone right now;
quiet sincere OK?

You
regard the world with
affection
it's the first time I used that word in a poem
and meant it.

Affection.

I hear the angels murmuring it among themselves.
