Chaos, by Eric Smith

8/8/2016

Beliefs
Become untrue
Come untied
Metaphors mixed
Beyond cognition
Constructions resisting
Favorable Interpretation
Leaves us where?
Disappearing into vortexes,
Gathering storms
Of last reckoning
Where facts fail
Comprehension fades
Passion depleted
Wanders aimless

This touched me. Beliefs do evolve.

Poetry

This is the section where fiction prose becomes something else. We still expect the poems to be short, though – sonnets, perhaps, or around that length at the very most.

Poems submitted should be
no longer than 160 words
and contain
no more than 16 lines.

100 words remains the approximate target.

Please submit using the Poetry Submissions Page.

Please feel free to comment (nicely!) on any poems – writers appreciate it.
Just at the moment, though, we're moderating some of them so there might be a slight delat before they appear.
