poetic Tumblr

Hopefully restricted to posting poems that move me in some fashion so as not to clog up Grace Notes @ Snarkattack.

Note: 'move' is neither positive or negative. Which means I'll also post poems I find incredibly wanky, of which there are many.

‘The Pressure of the Moment’ by Dara Wier

The pressure of the moment can cause someone to kill
   someone or something

The leniency of consideration might treat with more
   kindness

Which is to be desired. Or at least often to be desired.

But if my house is on fire and you notice, I wish you would
   kill

That fire. But if my hair is on fire, while I’m sure 
   you’ll be enjoying

The spectacle of it, act quickly or don’t act at all. But
   if a sudden

Jarring of us all out of existence is eminent, do
   something.
