Post-Incarnate Poem by Patti Masterman

Post-Incarnate

Rating: 5.0


I published my first book of poetry while in a cemetery;
On random stones, I positioned some leaves
with tears or drops of blood
Above every word included in my writing-
And then trailed wilted flowers diligently,
like dangling prepositions-
To show the many paths my lines would travel:

My leather may have worn thin, but the stories
Written there in dust and bone
will endure forever.
