Alternate Version

By | 15 September 2022

Ken writes the unwritten poem
as I once planned the unfinished poem
(that would be finished)

in fact I planned
a whole book of them

Unfinished

as in [ ]

the blurb:
‘anyone
can write finished poems . . .

people of the future,
if you like these poems
finish them yourselves’

the poems would be walked away from
like dead cars on a lonely stretch

each one left
with the feared instruction:

‘requires assembly’
