John Guzlowski and Martin Stepek are two successful poets. They have collaborated in creating hundreds of micro-poems, the one poet sparking a response from the other. Now they have decided to create a separate space where they could continue this co-creating until one or other kicks the bucket, at which point the survivor will re-post the first poem and it truly will become a never-ending poem. The two poets hope you enjoy reading the poems as much as they enjoy writing them.
Yesterday?
The day before?
The day before that?
And how much
is still here?
My memory of a tree
standing full of spring
before I even
know it's here?
Your memory
of your mom brushing
her hair with a blue brush
she's owned since she was 6.
More?
How much more?
And what will we
Do with it?
Put it in a box?
Share it with our children?
Stand on the road in front of our house
And sing it to the trees?
They won’t listen.
