Prana in Verse
Poems in, poems out. My poetry copybook.
Rated:

This item accepts reviews only.
This collection will eventually cover one hundred modern poets. Each gets a short bio and personal response, then I'll move on to quoting one of their poems and writing a following poem.

Prana is the Hindu concept of breath, and the movement behind breath. A horse inhales air and steams it out; water takes a particular path through a fish; my plants love my carbon and give me back happy little O2 molecules to inhale. Extending the idea to ideas themselves is no new thing. In fact, there will be a lot of borrowing going on with this project, starting with the fact that I more or less ripped the whole idea off from "Poeticisms"   by emerin-liseli .
