The first poem I would like to blog about is Sequoia Sempervirens. This poem was very interesting to me because I have always compared life to a squirrels life. The lines, we rip around getting our nut off to the city, means to me that we are like a squirrel in which we go to the city for our nut or our pay/ job. Just like how a squirrel get his nut from a tree. It is a metaphor. Also we are all in nature and we are all balanced as a planet. Energy is balanced in nature. We are not so much a fire dependent species so this could of meant that we are similar to the tree. The syntax of this poem is odd. It like has skipped lines between lines but has bigger line space between stanzas.
The second poem I would like to talk about is Alpine Glow In Magritte Landscapes. This poem was intriguing to say the least. The syntax was different which I liked a lot. It seemed as if he used the central tab where he typed out this poem. The sentences don't finish on the same line. It was hard to interpret but I assume this is a poem about a painting of some sort that he is describing with such sensory words. Yet he is very descriptive with what is actually going on. It is easy to picture what he is talking about. The line, "On a desk a pixilated screen of the sky out the window stacks flying cubes" is very descriptive but again sensory. This was a very interesting poem.
