Guest guest Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 My poem was born with a serious defect in the penumtimate line. I can't let it go uncorrected--even though it may go unread.Again: The big cherry tree bloomed with such success and so completely that without motive without giving a damn it started killing passersby and killed and killed all day long. Ah, that feels so much better. Not an original idea--and I am sure I have come across better like it--but I don't recall any of them so I have no bad conscience and anyway plagiarism ,while not beneath me exactly ,would be silly in these circumstances.

P: Rest at peace, since ancient times no one has said anything new, but everytime you repeat a phrase it's never, exactly the same. No one has ever waded twice in the same thought. Ha, ha. Did I plagiarize Heraclitus (The Obscure)? Trees at Night When at night, I walk under big trees, They're not the same as in daytime- changed, they bloom with gravitas, exude the perfume of mystery, whisper things I don't understand.
