Disclaimer
Please do not assume that I am the speaker/ subject of my poems.
In these times of creative nonfiction and fictionalized memoirs, I think of the poem itself as true fiction: it is most likely not factual, but it must be true.
It is likely to be -- it is best if it is -- a truth I did not know before I wrote, and may not understand even then.
A poem is my way of discovering (dis-covering) what I feel; sometimes, what I think -- but it is not necessarily biographical.
I love concrete poems. They are awsome

I like them, too. This one did not start out to be a concrete poem. It was nearly complete when I noticed the shape, and with very little tweaking, there it was - Raven, twice!

This is great, I love poems and stories about Ravens and actually today I was trying to make one but this one is way better. KOOL!
