four poems || Calvin Pennix


A CALL FOR INTERPRETATION

but still there’s a position
                 of acquiring

which is cause for concern

                     of immediacy



A call for interpretation

produces a finite
                  infinity

that stretches to a personal end

Black

Left

White

Right

Up

Blue

Down

Seven


Lenses widen as they shrink

when one steps outside themselves

allowing for the music to be heard



This impatient used to sprout in the spring




A COLLECTION OF LESSER DISTINCTION

So as it happens

notoriety concedes to hatred


Apart from each

we speak in monotone
                   allowing wiggle room


An expansion is welcome in conversation
o    
o   a watering daylight
o    
o   a collection of humanity

Recognition
       
à other than metaphor ß

represents those
                    of lesser distinction

who have overcome the struggle

    which is a necessity to

o   Glow
o   Flourish
o   Shine
o   Grow



Finally a check worth mentioning is prevalent









ABSTAINING FROM FALTERING

Perseverance

as it stands expectantly
      
       as a barrier

                        that molds and corrodes

                   outside special quality

                        divides itself in many directions

                   abstaining from faltering


though teeter it may



Residue begins to compile


feverishly


giving in

             to spastic sights

             seen through perforated vision















COMMUNICATED CONFIDENCE

At a loss

one begins in

italics


Additional markings

      communicate confidence

in upwards of …

      situating a main point



As distracted avoidance

 and clearly defined

                                                                                    however
 
               it’s a fragment



How far does blue
