Unwilling Catechist
By A_Puppet_Show
Like captivating ice boots,
you move to be the more -
slippery surface, and I fold;
the paper again and again.
Ride the mechanical guardian,
we line up the schooled eyes;
ohh no! why did I order this?
but they know so I shudder -
before the eyes I once knew.

it seems to be a folding in on yourself, outwards. But i'm skipping the boots, the unity that they provide, the special pause at "I fold" then we ride the limited illimitable (guarding what?) - line up the schooled eyes like fish.

Who teaches who? Who catches what? its not certain, but what is certain is that they know...teacher is student and student is teacher...I find myself catching myself in my own nets and can't help but come back to the boot...

"...slippery surface, and I fold" Like an origami. Yes, you do write in odd boxes. Quite surreal. There is texture & 'mechanical' shapes in these variable receptacles: rectangular, square, elongated, round, oval, packaged poems. "captivating". ...

It is importent that you do. A short poem can be very long with the word traps working.

That is not far off. The imagery came from Monkeys brain. Mechanical swanes with dead staring eyes swimming forever in circles on the grave of gods. Yes he does scare me sometimes .. Here the Mechanical guardian is Jesus.
