Vividly worded poem and the absolutely right photo to go with it. I hadn’t realized that fibinaccis could be utilized as a form of poetry. I’ll have to try it.

The poetry complements the photo beautifully.

I like the fib and how it builds.

Fibinacci-how clever!! Numb trees is as perfect description of telephone wires too. So much movement with the crackling drum beat and sparks.
You are a poet.

trees without life…a different kind of life flies between them. You have made a great image.

unique imagery; great!

beacuse of the form the poem does race away at the end like the telephone poles into the distance, a road, or maybe a train poem,

I have never known telegraph poles so beautifully described.
Marvellous.

there’s no such thing as beginning at the beginning- just when would that be, and who would tell the story? but some moments in a life suggest a kind of punctuation: quick-stop comma, full-stop period, or the in between caesuras of semi-colon and colon. rosalyn brown, half a heart
