Recycling poetry
When we are children,
all we take in
is Poetry.
In adolescence
we lean on Prose
without punctuation,
growing longer to gauge the resistance
of rooftops attached to support beams.
It seems maturity makes less time
for more meaning,
the old begin shrinking time
too little to learn anything less
than Poetry.
Painting by Eero Järnefelt, 1895 in [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons.
