Tree is not forest.
Die is not game.
Home isn't community.
Nor an apple a bushel.
Constellations aren't galaxies.
One bolt not a storm.
A sheep's not a flock.
One bud no bouquet.
So alone… so alone.
That's my third and final entry for Poetry Dice 4. It started as a bit of an exercise in contrasting individuals and groups then it hit me how to laser focus a single line to bring it all home. Hope it moved you in some way.
Many thanks to
