On Insects Caught By Light

Necklace of street-lights,
wave-thundering loud
I shall sing
for this
time –

firefly pendants,
those jittering
lucky ones,
trapped
minute-bright
to career,
topaz-washed
in the
night;
to guide,
moon-forgetful,
glyph strokes
in the
glow,
where only
the travellers
flung from
precipitous
presents
dare
go.
A quick poem... I'm always fascinated by insects that hover in beams of light, and momentarily glow.

hi!

i run, along with a friend who lacks a deviantart account, a poetry blog on tumblr, and i was wondering - would you be interested in being featured on said blog? we will link back to this page, or to your name, whichever you prefer.

if you don't want to be featured or don't answer, don't worry, we won't feature you against your wishes!

www.poets-kick-ass.tumblr.com is the blog, if you wanted to check it out.

thanks!
