In Glaze of Dusk

My response to dVerse Poets Pub 5 Year celebration Part 4, Catching up with Samuel Peralta

Björn has interviewed Samuel Peralta. I enjoyed his poem, ‘N. poeticus’, which has made me a little nervous about my own post this evening. What I have taken from the interview is Sam’s advice to ‘write from the heart, but edit with your head – mercilessly’.

Björn has also brought one of Sam’s old prompts to the bar, challenged us to write a poem with a limit of 140 characters (including spaces, line-spaces etc. and even provided a link to Sam’s original prompt.

 

In glaze of dusk,

Besieged by

Concepts

Of time’s unpredictable

Effects,

I watched gulls

Spill into waves,

Pink snow

In sunset’s afterglow.

  3. Love the title, & lovely feel to the poem–stretched out to seem longer than it is. I like the lines /I watched gulls/spill into waves/.
