Isolation Exercise: Write a description of one element of a set – one book on a shelf of books, One bird on the telephone line. Write a lyric poem
“Simplicity”
One flower in the bunch
A daisy in a bouquet of clichéd roses
Simple petals of white
A center of sunshine yellow
No sweet perfume for my breath
But an earthiness.
No poems grace my name
No love sonnets
I am the oracle of adoraion
(He Loves me, he loves me not)
In a field of crimson
I am the odd woman out
Pleased to be plain.

Fav lines:
"No sweet perfume for my breath"
"I am the oracle of adoration" (spelling error there, btw)
My most favorite line (it creates a cool image and personality to the poem) is "I am the odd woman out / Pleased to be plain."
