Napowrimo 2018/  Day 6
Prompt - Poem that plays with line breaks.

Liminal

Latin, “limens” literally meaning thresholds.  Magical places where meetings happen.

Ocean
/
Shore

Doorways
where you may may spy
a noble lion, or evil queen
                                                           dripping in furs and offering
                                                           fragrant roseTurkish delight.
                                                           But you have to be brave to
                                                           Step through ……………..

It’s a place                                                                            feel like your                                                                                                                                                                                                     floating

                      where you can                                                                                 anxiously

A place of terrible ambiguity and unknowing

Betwixt
              /
                             Between

Places of mystery, power, creativity
A poem is a liminal space where my words meet your understanding
are we close or miles apart?
