Desert Bus 2024, Day 4. Dan Olson is a thoughtful person. Welcome to the unhinged madness that is Desert Bus for Hope; please come again!
I felt like the words speak for themselves and needed very little. I edited and formatted them into a contemporary poem, and added a little accent. That's all.
India ink and watercolour on textured paper. Italic script.

"Write a Poem", They Said.
"No need to rhyme", they said.
"Who'd have the time?" I said.
"But make it scan" they said.
"Give it a skipping gait, a steady pace, a fluid grace."
"If I can", I said.
"Use simile like a smuggler's pack.
Make metaphor a hollow shoe,
To sneak some subtle subtext through."
"Could do", I said.
"But never do as others do.
Always to thine truth be true."
"Mine?" I said.
"Fine," I said.
