DIGS

Are ancient digs proud
Of shards? How then poets of
Verse dug from within?
Poets are tuning
Forks resounding with verses
To how the wind blows.

BURIED WORDS

After years of poems profusely spilled
Worms, wind and weather worked the soil
That refused to yield a crop
Despite desperate, ceaseless toil.
Who'd believe the muse would stop
Providing poetry at will
And lie fallow, mutely stilled?
Yes, of writer’s block I'd heard
But a grid of detoured highways
Through which no word could travel?
Years passed. From beneath the maze
Of boulders, bricks and gravel.
Though nothing visible occurred,
Burst a lava of blissful word on word.
