I’ve spent all weekend reading about poems and poems about poems and things about poems and poems about things and things that are like poems and poems that are like things and things that are not poems at all and how these poems don’t work with these things but how these things work with poems and poems about poems and things about poems being poems and old poems and new poems and metaphors and metaphors about metaphors and poems about metaphors and theories about how metaphors are bad but they use metaphors and how language is cheating but you can only tell me that through using language and metaphors surprise here’s another poem.
I’m still not caught up.
I bet you didn’t notice
this is a Haibun.
