Words Are Fairy Dust

Misti Marie Elmore

Presumably in disbelief
I chased the star of Psalms
Sang a song of lamentation
Wisdom proved me wrong
Temptation swept me into her
I confessed and swam away
I look for the morning star
To turn and eat the day

Write After: National Poetry Month with One Poem Only

Write After is a way to encourage poets to listen and write, and use National Poetry Month to highlight how listening to poetry makes us better poets. I know I write the best when I’m surrounded by beautiful poetry–it’s part of the reason I created this podcast, and I want to encourage others to share this practice. We'll get started in April. You can share to #WriteAfterOPO.
