For Christmas awhile back, someone gave us a little box labeled "Magnetic Poetry". Intrigued, I opened it to find a whole bunch of those teeny-tiny refrigerator magnet things each with a different word on them. Since our refrigerator proper is one of those small dorm room things I put all these words (in no particular order, yet...) on the Coke machine and let our clients have at it.

It took awhile to catch on, but I've come in after sessions and found some of the most amazing things on there, painstakingly constructed from the available words. Some have been humorous, some have been dirty (the easy way out), and some have been deep! After all, we do get a fair amount of good writers in here. So I thought I would share some of the better ones here.


Found near the coin slot:

I|devour|change|and|it's|delicious


You|never|embrace|the|breath
of|a|broken|marble,

my|secret|universe

You|never|explore|the|color
of|a|woman's|salty|perfume

my|heartless|laugh


You|question|not|the|decay|of|eternity,
though|you|may|worry|about|some|wild|ghost
like|a|pierced|and|glassy|young|boy.
A|child|speaking|to|fat|and|naked|women

...picture|it


Men|in|our|fishing|pool,
lips|throb|like|steel

desire|lingers

dirty|bath

Father's|voice|like|an|ice|pick
In|her|musty|blue|ocean|belly--

a|fire.


Prisoner|of|brother's|poetry

windows|rob|every|breeze.

She|bellows|all|to|deliciously
sacred|angel|cake,|moist|and|ferocious

Hard|center

Stiff|flower

cold|look


She|wears|her|over|present|self,
once|born|to|devour|yesterday,

blindly|dies


Celebrate|the|daughter|as|God
Sacrifice|his|foolish|growl,
the|game|will|soon|bee|too|translucent,

like|those|cat's|eyes

green,|always|brilliant.


Awake|the|star|boned|baby
and|see|this|liquid|web.
