LET’S LEAVE THE ‘POEMS’ WITHOUT METAPHORS <br /> <br />Let’s leave the ‘poems’ without metaphors <br />Bare and stark and original <br />Quiet and sleeping and still <br />The soothing poems the calming poems <br />The poems that even in the middle of the night <br />Let us sleep. <br />Let’s leave the poems without metaphors <br />And go back to the simple words <br />And let them say all they can by themselves <br />Until they become metaphors too.<br /><br />Shalom Freedman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/let-s-leave-the-poems-without-metaphors/
