In composing my poetry, I find a generous portion of “stream of consciousness” writing as popularized by Jack Kerouac. This form of writing leans into the unfolding of the real-time flow of consciousness as a style versus a heavily edited and “perfected” form of writing.
Recounting Presents
Jack Kerouac
Blue into town
Taking insights
And incites
Long the way
Recounting presents
The road scholar
Had nothing on him
And when he left
He write
Peering read
To some
This style of writing is also portrayed in my poem: The Dog Edit My Homework
