Riffing on the big themes

Nature, War and Love were the three headings in When Life Looks Like Easy Street. I still believe poetry has to engage with such big themes: archetypes and myths. And it has to live in instances.

I have undertaken to submit five poems to the Verve Poetry competition. They are to have been never published, not even blogged or self published.

So, themes and structures: revolution, transformation, usurpation of dominion
overthrowing gods. The themes of my moment are always critical theory, sophomoric carnality,
epic morality, guiding plurality into the arms of divine power dressers slipping on carpeted corridors curving carved coving disappearing down traps in the mind.
