From Inside Looking Out by Margaret Dubay Mikus, Copyright 2015
“You can write a poem
about anything:
mundane, mystical, trivial
momentous, silly or banal.
A car in front of me
on a dark winter night…”
From poem 46, “Something Small,” in my book, Thrown Again into the Frazzle Machine: Poems of Grace, Hope, and Healing. Listen here: https://youtu.be/9wJb73ytJmc
A poem can be a story, a portrait, an observation, a eulogy, a witness, an emotional rant, a philosophical musing or anything else in between. There are rules and they can be bent or broken. Anything that happens can be woven in, with threads from the past, present or future, both true and speculation. What you sense or think or dream or imagine…all can be made real, on the page. What character are you most like in this story?
