Works of Art

Posted on February 3, 2024February 3, 2024 by Erin B.
Read a book while
hours 
slip by.
Traverse countries with adventure.
Experience a love more tender
than prose.
In the long run,
I adore these
works of art in life.

Abstract the Essence

Perhaps the purest
substance of human light
is concentrated
in art itself.
Abstract the essence of
every book.

Bringing a book to life
is a labor of love,
unique in ability to take you
into the wild
of literary worlds.

Gilded Cage

Posted on July 21, 2023July 21, 2023 by Erin B.
I've wanted to write
but a book would be
the proverbial bird in
gilded cage,
for fear it might disappear
and empty her heart.

This Book

Posted on April 4, 2022August 2, 2022 by Erin B.
This book
serves as my epigraph,
a work of art
turning other people's
creative fictions
into poems that explore
life experiences.

Close the book and watch,
in a thick drizzle
the rain pour down.
