https://imperfectverse.wordpress.com/2012/05/06/the-key
Imperfect Verse (Imperfect Poet). Totally not ripping off Eliot. Published May 6, 2012. I found a key in a live oak tree. Buried beneath the roots. Hidden away by years of growth. The key was old and tarnished,. Intricate details scoured away by dirt;. It hung heavy in my hand,. And spoke of secrets and secret places. What tales this key could tell,. If metal had lips to speak. Where had this key once belonged? A magnificent plantation house,. Tall and white;. A governor’s manor,. Stately and refined;.

Imperfect Verse (Imperfect Poet). Totally not ripping off Eliot. 8220;Inner Zen Garden”. Published May 9, 2012. When I was in high school, I wrote a poem called “Inner Zen Garden,” which won the grand prize in our city’s K-12 art festival. Which was odd, because the poem sucked.

Posing on a windowsill,. Aloof, independent, and ungrateful. But you, my black cat, are none of those things. You, with your white spot and rounded cheeks,. Who paws and mews and kneads and clings,. You are most certainly none of those things. Elegant you are not, it is simply not possible. And not when your face is so wide.
