The imagination is like spilled, spreading paint.

c0 Would that I were a cat on a foggy morningYesterday I posted "the digital midden, or, we see our lives brightly through gorilla glass" (>). That poem is like spilled, spreading paint - most of it was formed in the first splash, the rest in stretching fingers that crept ever more thinly until they were only drying puddles.

The tricky part is knowing when it's dry.

My 2 favorite poems:

The Red Wheelbarrow
by William Carlos Williams

so much depends
upon

a red wheel
barrow

glazed with rain
water

beside the white
chickens.

Fog
by Carl Sandburg

The fog comes
on little cat feet.

It sits looking
over harbor and city
on silent haunches
and then moves on.
