Poetry Submission
written by: Thomas Park

Somewhat as Vegas
Words rattling like dice
Metaphors, playing cards
This is my submission
Derived from “submit”
I bow my head, offer
Lines carefully chosen
Approval sought, vindication
Rush of pleasure, affirmation
Poems made alone in room
Perhaps exposed to crowd in time
Submitting poet pondered
Ancient play of thought
When branch of tree fell
In wood where none could hear
Was there sound?
That time was taken, Energy
To form particular notions
Penses, rhymes
I would prefer, if like a limb
Had fallen to the forest floor
You sensed the crack of wood
On wood, earth, pebble
Wanted more
