treeeee
Ed Markowski, one of our foremost poets in the brief form, has been experimenting with old school graphics and the short poem. He's sent along a number of wonderful little pieces and agreed to let me share this one with you.
I particularly like how his use of graphics is more lyrical than literal, a visual equivalent of the poems themselves as seen in the piece above, which is called treeeee.
