RE: A Dead Poems Society Production, Round 4, Contest and Community Building

I love this generous deadpost initiative. Very cool.

Here is mine: https://steemit.com/poetry/@sue-stevenson/handiwork

Sort:  

cool stuff, keep those fingers typing away at those "F1, Control, Alt, Delete"

Thank you :) Actually, the typing is exactly what I don't want to be doing (transcribing). My fingers itch for more creative pursuits :)

So happy to see and new face join in:)

Can't sell that remedy
in a pharmacy:
Apply forever once a day
twice for withered souls

I have to admit to loving the sound that keys make when you type upon them:) Just love it:)

It's kinda like rain, isn't it :)

The creative drive unanswered is an itch that can only be treated by letting the creative impulse lead. Well penned. (I commented this on your original post too)

It is the most awesome dance partner, isn't it, when you allow yourself to be led! Bliss, bliss, bliss :)

And thank you.

As I read your beautiful poem, I thought about that time in our lives when we retire; that itch, that uneasiness is definitely akin to creative minds and bodies which still have some work to offer (maybe then more than ever). Thanks for the opportunity to read you, @sue-stevenson

Then they smoothed
over clay
cut collages
with scissors
dipped brushes
into paint
scratched pens
onto poems
&
then they
stopped itching

There is no better medicine than the one that rejoices the psyche (?). Thanks for sharing this poem @sue-stevenson
