Posted by Amie Golda on 01/27/10 at 05:38 AM "time to tweak the word"--->I love this! It echoes everything you've got in this poem, which is in fact tweaking the world by turning an ordinary word (hey) into something worth poetry and into poetry indeed. Well done! |
Posted by Glenn Currier on 03/13/10 at 04:37 PM This feels like a playful tweak and a wink at Time. I especially liked: "today it is wide /tomorrow slim..." And the idea that it doesn't live in the attic - gathering dust. Keep on stepping into the day and making hey, my friend! |
