Found poetry- Book spine poetry.  These books are all by BC Poets.

What does a house want?
Borrowed rooms.
What the soul doesn’t want?
Chaos inside thunderstorms
Silence-the breaking of it
Ghost in the gears.

Our familiar hunger.

There is a season.
Skin like mine
The bodies
fishtailing.
The wild in you.

This unending line

describes a metaphor for life,

our unending spinning through

the routines of daily life,

dark moments where we’ve

gotten stuck in a groove,

and there,

where it leaves the paper,

departure for

another plane.

(This might be fun to try as a shape poem)
