National Poetry Month 2020: April 29 — Whiskers R We
For National Poetry Month 2020 I am writing one or more American Sentences and sharing them here.
A week ago we became foster kitty parents. This is making it simultaneously easier and harder to accomplish my goal.
It would seem easy but no. Unless you tag team you do not get enough sleep. Moms and some dads, you know what it is like to nurse an infant. I really don’t know how I did it.
And it is inspiring yes and I count the 17 syllables for the day’s American poem and find many BUT but unless you are William Carlos Williams or Eileen Myles or Scott Vetsch with a small notebook and pen in your coat pocket well… you lose the poems. Poof. Just. Like. That.
But there’s more where they come from.
There are an infinite number of poems.
Kind of like love — you can never love too many kittens.
