The Spines On My Shelves

That’s Not How We Do It Here
A Line In The Sand
Conflict Resolved
Reclaim

Book Spine Poetry is another ‘Found’ Form of poetry. I have two collections of Book Spine Poetry. One by Nina Katchadourian, and another by Annette Dauphin Simon.

The piece above is from The Spines On My Shelves - one of my current writing projects.

This is from Katchadourian’s ‘Sorted Books’:

Conversations with Artists
When Two Or More Are Gathered Together
Dreams and Schemes

And this is from Simon’s ‘Spine Poems’:

You are here
Home at last
Our story begins

You may be surprised at the poems standing on your shelves waiting to be written. Perhaps ‘find’ and create one, and drop it in the Comments below.

Dream intentionally - while you’re awake.
