I'd put this pen to verse
and tell of the clanging
drums within my heart, ringing
progress progress progress
but poetry is a medium
best left untouched by me.
It is said, don't put to verse
anything that belongs in prose
I'm certain this should be
in that latter category.

Any idiot can see that the result is true.

very spectacular indeed! surprised there are no more responses to this, as i feel this inter-musing all the time. such a good thing it is (especially for me, lol) that poetry allows for prose as well as verse. (in my case, unlike you, fractal, even prose-like ramblings) good write!

of all the things we try to find... it's only love we keep.

Muse away... Beautiful. I would love to see it turned to prose later.

Love,

It sings.  It sounds good.  I like the part about poetry being a medium.  Its so very true.  Poetry after its written seems to have a mind of its own in some circumstances where it can be interpreted in several different ways.
