colors

driving into a purple sky
a red house
a yellow house

could i paint this?
children running
on a green field

then, the town square
a domed building
a military statue

who made these rules?

flags and banners
boulevard trees
bend in the wind

the aspen, singing
could i paint this?
all the blue light

About Sharon Brogan

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.
