"Poet And His Craft" by Joe DiMino

Speak softly

for here sound

can cause a multitude

of slides,

mere whispers

projectiles of volume

if not

cautiously voiced,

provoking not

the least

ambivalent refrain....

I gather my words

making tapestry,

to be hung

for all to see,

transparent

till the wall

where we must pause,

forced to listen,

the visual aspect

of good poetry

only eclipsed

by its music.
