Poem-A-Day: NINE, 86 by Anne Tardos

NINE, 86
by Anne Tardos 
 
The insubstantial and changing quality of space is
   appreciated.

Intellectual understanding is based on harmless 

   and spontaneous perception.

Supposition gold-digger advocating pleasure-be 

   the laughing stock!

Amber cushion softly evident seagull commentary, 

   we shall prevail.
Tirelessly pedaling along the ever present source 

   of ideas.
Long, drawn-out suffering is not what we're after.
Palpably diligent search for the hidden order in art.
Studying aspects of artistic imagination, the kinds 

   of attention.
Conscious and unconscious scanning of perceptual 

   stress and oscillation.

Due to popular demand, Poem-A-Day became a year-round program in 2010, featuring original, never-before-published poems by contemporary poets on weekdays, and classic poems on weekends.
