“Every phrase and every sentence is an end and a beginning / Every poem an epitaph”
Eliot~ Little Gidding
Each writer is a butcher
chop chop chopping to fit the page
bitesize mouth pieces
But you, master of the pen, executed
gorgeous grammar, prose meted out by the meter
just that lightest of sentiment as sonnet
strokes of short sharp shocks
non-committal as breadcrumbs
So when all the alphabets were off
all words scrabbled
dog-eared letters condemned
snip snipped and torn apart
love was rewritten in slivers
Beginning quote from Eliot’s “Little Gidding“* as Paul @ dVerse asks us to scribble some lines about ‘The End’
