I picked up this towering collection from @thesongcave.bsky.social on the strength of a post from @tomsnarsky.bsky.social — thanks for your advocacy of strange and powerful poetry, Tom.

I love this poem One of my pet peeves is when rules are imposed on poetry, especially “never center align poems”

The Aspen Path, from The Cloud Path by Melissa Kwasny #twopageplustuesday

I think I generally may lack the attention span for longer poems, but, well, Louise Glück -

well I mean, this one is sorta what I’m known for on this website #twopagrsplustuesday

The bay agitatedly tries to smooth itself out. If it were tissue paper it would need damp and an iron. It is a good deal more than damp. What a lot of water. -James Schuyler "The Edge" from Cenotaph This is a beautiful poem I talk about often. #twopageplustuesday share.google/Ou2Cs0pOGiOa...

it’s late in the day, but I’d like to try something. here’s a poem by Thomas Horan called “Moonslick Bay in Pain”—I’d like to share it for #twopageplustuesday, a day of sharing poems you like (or poems you yourself have written!) that take up two or more printed pages, roughly speaking. (1/2)
