What a Difference the Poetry Jam Makes!

Of course, in my mind, this makes sense. Though it is possibly the antithesis of what Brian Miller was looking for in his call to action prompt for The Poetry Jam.

Ah well.

The prompt, and the poets, can be found here: http://poetryjaam.blogspot.com/2011/08/will-write-for.html

Grave with Lights



When the sky is great,

such night as this, and not sky

but heavens to ask

why do I feel

this thing, that thing

is child’s why.

Because I said so.

Because why not.

Because you are so

very, very



small.
