ARS POETICA

I push language to extreme
to see how far it will go to tell
of places and things that build
new worlds beyond limits
of what we know ..

poetry is an art of fluid motion
constant change and mutation
an act of linguistic violation,
a breaking of norms
I tear into metaphor
as I tear into the heart

Listening to rap..for the lyrics...and punk music

then the sweet music of course
I read this and like the finger snap edginess
got both modern lines and a recognizable
too me modern rolling of syllables
"I tear into the metaphor" I read it like
a gatlin gun...bup...bup..bup..bup..bup...
eight ...breaks..beats..
I - TEAR- IN- TO- THE- MET -A- PHOR..
its great...

mutation violation excellent!

thank U
