NAPOMO MODE
Poem + Commentary on NAPOMO- National Poetry Month (audio)
AUDIO OF POEM
NAPOMO MODE (poem)
Nature of all things
Alloted space to explore
Put under a microscope
Observed intensively
Measured lightly
Or precisely
Meditating a good time
On paper and screen
Dedicating
Extensive effort
ON NAPOMO MODE
