you’ll never guess

by Wolfgang Nibori

 

coal-eyed cobra on the other side of the glass
despite the smoke and mirrors, sense your intention
no secret, the swaying way you go about injection
maybe there’s a little part of her that applauds
at the cocksure display of carelessness
of the many layers of painted lies across a truth
only takes a cyclops to capture the spray
how many years will pass before all nostalgia

Brand New Feature

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

As regular visitors to this blog have come to know, I feature fresh poems daily. I work to make sure there’s something new every day for each of you to enjoy, but I want to go beyond that because the road to a million isn’t going to be easy or quick.

With that in mind, I’ve initiated a new weekly feature! I’ll be auctioning off one poem each week on E-bay in order to raise more funds for the Million Dollar Poetry Project. Not only will the winning bidder receive the traditional button on the front page and link to a website of their choice, each of the auctioned poems will come with a handwritten original copy of that particular poem mailed FREE to the winner!

In case you’d like to take a look, here’s where you can find the latest poem up for auction:

One Way to Support the Million Dollar Poetry Project

Wednesday, June 11th, 2008

I sat down today and considered ways bringing some income into the Million Dollar Poetry Project. After doing a little research, I realized that setting up an Amazon shop was well within my means. Then I went and built it! As of now I’ve added books (both fiction and non) that have inspired me over the years. I hope you’ll find a title you’d like to read, too.

The Million Dollar Poetry Project Shop

All purchases made through this store go to benefit this project. I’ll be using any earnings to advertise more widely so I can get the word out and also make the blog (and main site) look better by purchasing some graphic design since I’m (clearly) not skilled at that. :)

Since Amazon handles all payments and orders, you know your information’s secure. I’ve handpicked each product and I won’t be adding any books, movies, games or music that I’ve not enjoyed myself.

Thank you for visiting and thank you, also, if you choose to take a look!
