FAR-EDGED POETRY:
Far edged" means not of the norm. No clichés. Use an original usage of language and metaphor and writing to the prompt in an uncommon way. Take it way out in left-field to meet the prompt. Do not take the easy road or common way of expressing the theme. Go way out on the far-edge of the theme to write and ‘edgy” poem.


In poetry, as in life: I am Eagle Woman; eye that takes in even smallest details, the heart of forgiveness, a woman of new beginnings, creativity and inspiration. I mean to be love on shafts of air.

My favorite commenter and poet on AP: On "Bent Wish" poem I wrote about losing my voice

Somehow, I found my token arms,
greater hole of path-way feather,
like nest-arrested broken charms
in light-lipped bedding,
brought to bare
through joy of blissful shadow-down
truth;

our distant glance,
lie fading youth.


I called your name in rivet- rain wash,
where we laid stream
with soul-drenched moon,
swallowed fast of windswept nails
impaling kiss to flowing storm,
down rails of thunder-shredding sails.


You spoke then of feast-less famine,
examining more than love might flower
on cold-stone night,
our late-heart hour
leaving note to waning supposition.


I give you back your stolen voice
of legs and fishes,
to bottle toss, wet with choice,

corking tendril-hope tornado,

our lover's credo cold and terrifying
crying now to sleep in justification.


For where was time
when time was new,

where was bird to sing another season,

the comfort child of kindergarten snowflakes
sending laugh in heaven-shimmed weather
where holiday breaks

in evergreen wishes?

    Dear lady, my very deepest sympathy on your loss. I know this passage of life very well, lost my own mother 12 yrs ago and there really are no words sufficient to speak to this.....only know that there are others who understand and who share with you albeit from far away....there is comfort offered and found in open palms wherever they may be.
    There is much healing in words and artistic expression too, and I know you will find it even within your own.....but do know it is also felt and offered to you from kindred spirits and hands. XOXOXOXO
