scars void of desire (new poem)

"at times my memory reconstructs the hasty
death of love, its fragments of limp passion,
and the crackling of confusion’s static
with its icy-blue dismal dissonance"

from: scars void of desire

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
