Poetry is emotional masterbation

Closure
another story told
a tidy home
setting soul

a touch of frost
on the flowers pot
before fall

a holy end
of windswept roads
praise, know

minnows dart
to and fro
sunflight specks in shallows

figs and poppyseeds
i have them all

When you bite into a fig the little seeds are like crunchy little poppy seeds no?...or are you saying you have ovaries?

poetry is a loincloth.

masturbation is emotional poetry.
