Prompt: Poetry
Poem by George Oppen (tagged)
We should all admire this quirky poet for the way he reflected an era in America.
What are you, apple! There are men
Who, biting an apple, blind themselves to bowl, basket
Or whatever and in a strange spell feel themselves
Like you outdoors and make us wish
We too were in the sun and night alive with sap.
