Poems about Poetry
Paralipomemnon
by April Mae Berza
You coffee is worth a Nobel
A novel I am into for that coffee
is the same panacea
for a patient
etherized
on my desk.
stirring string upon string
on my desk
the Muse
arrived.
I am not a port.
Legerdemain is my name, coffee spilled out
to heal a wound
to wound again and to heal once
more
Muse
Musing, I am not the Muse Homer once called
not even Virgil’s
their songs I tried to replay
is the silence in my name.
