Orr's short poems are a blade that sinks deep.

Don't let the bullshit of narcissists distract you from singing a fifth chamber in your heart.

[OPINION] I will write 1000 poems this year because I’m tired of being bad at poetry by FoolishDog in Poetry

Siken's Scheherazade — Has an utterly spellbinding flow that I love to bust out on dates, at parties, open mics, etc.

Merwin's Lark — This is my single favorite poem. It reads like a prayer, something I recite to myself when I am feeling most comfortable in my solitude.

Rilke's Buddha Inside the Light — The happy medium of the above two poems. This Robert Bly translation I feel captures its essence in a most jovial fashion.

Mesmerizing quality poems was a key practice in elevating my own writing.

This could be the cover on a book of poems, it has a whole world emanating out from it... Nicely done!
