Immagine & Poesia

IMMAGINE & POESIA

The beginning poems and paintings with Emma Dickinson's
"Forever is composed of nows"
and Lawrence Ferlinghetti's epigrams set a stage that they later ones couldnt share.
The later half of the poems are about visits to the tourist spots in newyork. I was reminded of the time I spent visiting the city.
My NY Times Square poem in Urban Confustions summer issue 2011.

Foam flowers

The Call of the Verdin

is irresistible
It continues till you
look for it
and then its gone

Leaving China

On Chinese scrolls being quiet and subdued but still so alive

Year of No sugar

Year of no sugar

I have stopped having sugar in tea since I started the 100 diet 
about 2 months now.
But I still need to have some sugar in coffee as it tastes bitter even with cream.
Today I was at a point if I should add sugar to my coffee.  I like tea for its a hot drink, so I dont miss sugar too much.
I am much into sweets. But cookies rule me. Its the crunch that gets me. Are gooey things more sweet?

Five-plant Gardens

Wow. Like flower arrangement, arrangements of plants in a garden.

Five strides on the banked track

I read about Roller Derby in Frank Deford's previous book Over Time. If you have heard his commentary on NPR, you cant help but read the book in his tone.
'The Roller derby prospers, rocking and whirring,exciting its own, nurturing its young. It was designed on a tablecloth..'
Deford's writing technique moves with contrasting images of high activity and a tablecloth.
Like Meads study on Samoans, Hemingway's on Bull fighting, this will be the last word on Roller Derby.
