Best Poem of Sally Plumb Plumb
A Humorous Death
Distance stretches
to the horizon,
over the edge
is the distance down.
I am over
Falling slow as a feather.
My past passes me,
painfully.
It is a long way,
the bottom.
In the mortuary of mind
lay my ancestors
arms open and calling.
The dying left in me
will not speed its entirity
towards the inevitable.
>> <<
My ancestors are laughing now.
Applauding joyfully,
glad that I am released
from the restrictions of being.
Domestic
A face that's numb
takes pause
to recollect its features.
A mouth that's dumb
can't gasp
its self respect.
The brain's too blind
to predict
its seething injury.
An Emily Dickenson for our times, perhaps?
Hi Sally,
I chose a poem of yours at random - 1957 -
“…kohl-eyed,
black lashed
Saturday morning spenders”
‘Good God’ I thought …were you there? ’
Straight back to the ‘Riviera’ and ‘Elasona’ coffee bars and the local ‘Plaza’ on Saturday nights.
Another couple - ‘Aunt Rose’ you say is kid’s stuff - we were all kids at one time and ‘Seagull’ - how often we fail to notice the things we frequently see. Great work.
Yes the universety of life of which I am one also gd to read your poems. I hav been writing poetry myself for about 20 years untill recently didnt know they were any good. Now I realise and now it flows.
