The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."

As usual these days, I choose blog format because it offers more space for the work.

Ordinary

The allure of the commonplace -
the things that have no space,
beneath our notice, called banal,
and overlooked by all,

these may seem so low and trifling,
but give them time and thought,
and they will speak of worlds beguiling,
beyond whatever you sought.
