My very first attempt at poetry. The Bookspine Kind, that is.


Increase Blog Followers



Q: Activity: Spine Poetry. Create a line of poetry with your book spines (take a picture). Not feeling creative? Tell us about your favorite poem.

So, I've never done one of these before. I always shied away from all the effort. But as soon as I really got started I could not stop choosing books and adding more lines...I guess I went a little overboard with it....
(Also, excuse the picture. There simply was NO place with right lighting in my entire room!)

  

And the poem to go with it!

How I live now ?
Just listen.
Just one day is made of 
Fragments.
A Perfect
Flawless
Beautiful
Chaos.
And I am an airhead
A runaway.
The sky is everywhere 
And I find myself
Between here and forever.

    Nice!
    This weeks's challenge didn't really work for me since I read almost everything electronically these days...

    Happy weekend!

      Ahh, I get what you mean! I've got some books on my Kindle,too but as of right now, I could never completely part with my physical copies. Let's talk about that again when I'm off to college, crammed with two people in a tiny bedroom... :D

    Now I wish I had tried to do one, lol. Yours is really awesome! My favorite line is "Just one day is made of / Fragments."

      Thank you so much! And I hesitated at first, too. As I said,though, it's so much fun once you actually get started!

      Hehe, I didn't even think too much about that part, but it kind of makes sense...I think it's good for the brain if you're an airhead sometimes :D
