Here you'll find poetry. Most of these pieces are relatively short and simple, though some of the best ones take advantage of tying space into the poem itself.

A poem. The text is in the shape of clouds raining down on part of a building. The text reads: There is something distant in the quiet seconds opening up a chasm between songs a soft pitter- patter a critter light on its feet, thousand legs resounding, bounding across a roof a shower of water poured upon the earth, reinvigorating dry, cracked ground withering plants, and those hidden in their silly structures- though not free of the drip d p d p drip of a leaking window, listening to the sky's very own melody.
A poem. This one is titled Twine, and the text is in the shape of a computer. The text reads: One day, I named my computer. It wasn't one I put much thought into: Twine. She- and she is such in the same way a boat will be she maybe a project car, too- the type that sits in your neighbor's driveway for years, but they enjoy working on it, so who are you to ruin their fun?
A poem. This one is titled Absence. It reads: Absence is a good word. It's not like lack which implies something is missing Absence is like it was never there. A large, white box sits to the left of additional text. A lack is an open wound Absence is an abscess, waiting to pop.
