Poem Booth
Hello. Welcome. Congratulations on your willingness to still yourself and listen, to tune your attention outward to another and allow these syllables, fricatives and sonorants, to wild through you, flutter like butterflies on a migration path to Mexico. Or to music. Or mathematics. Or the moon’s silver surface. You’ve no idea, exactly, where these words will lead, down which library aisle, or asylum hall. Congratulations on your bravery, for stepping into this poem booth, this street-side sanctuary, this sky-blue room, this quiet corner of pause. By Dayna Patterson Dayna is our runner up for the first poem booth poetry contest. Congratulations, Dayna! You can read more about her work at: www.psalteryandlyre.org.
