Like Leaves, I Fall

I don’t write poetry all that often. Only when something stirs deeply enough to demand it. Lately, I’ve been untangling some complicated thoughts, and just as that began, the world around me started its quiet shift into autumn. There’s something grounding in that... How the natural world seems to echo what’s happening inside. This piece might not be for everyone. I’ve spent enough time with the British Romantics that their influence tends to seep into my work, whether I mean it to or not.

I’ll return to my usual soon enough. But for now, here’s something that’s been sitting heavily on my soul. Take care as always, Peace and Love ~ Mae

we need a revival of the political poem. i don’t just mean writing them, i mean people writing reviews as verbal fistfights over political poems. a poet drops some 300 line blank verse and every review under the sun scrambles to publish their own criticism. lines are drawn, people are throwing words at each other, and the rest of us are arguing in coffee shops, quoting the reviews like we read that poem ourselves.
