Compact poems are all essence/2 poems by Gary Hotham


Good poets put the pen down before the spirit leaves them. Gary Hotham is another great example of an artist that respects the economy of a poem. He is also a poet who understands the traditions of haiku while moving it forward.

Here are two classics by Gary Hotham:

tonight’s hotel room –
the stain on the rug
nothing to worry about

*

early in the night—
the stars we can see
the space for more
