dVersePoets Pub – Stream of Consciousness Prompt –
hosted by Victoria C Slotto
*
stream of consciousness is one of my favorite modes of creativity, and has slowly, over the years, been tempered by some well needed conscious prodding reviewing and revising
so victorias’ suggestion, within her prompt at dVersePoets, is pretty valid, if you have the time and inclination, ie, you might get going and wanna bust through while the busting’s good 😉
• Review your writing for any connection you can discover between words and phrases and see where your poem will take you.
• Put your work aside for a while before returning to it.
i find, if you do this form of writing enough, you get where you like incorporating and doing some of these ideas
and she has more tips, and examples, and links to the likes of james joyce and virginia woolf, among others
it’s an interesting read of a prompt, highly recommend if you’re curious 😉

Weather Neighbors
a year ago i woke in texas to this same heat this
afternoon that had burned off a lingering morning northern
chill and find the two thousand miles neighbors each and every
inch along the way should i worry i wondered then forgot should i
fret or celebrate or buy an extra beer here or simply feel myself the
same in place to place adjust the windows with the shades as
the arc of sun boils the west and leaves the rest tonight
in tepid waiting for the cool of dawn i am neighbors
to myself in different lands offering strangers
notice of the dew point’s choke point on
our skin our eyes our way of feeling
something’s “off” something’s
not quite right tonight but
i am neighbors with
myself now and i
know
i know like the folk here
know
this winter past was faux cold and i know the
summer-spring that stings is faux heat
indeed
unless you get hot or cold
easy
then the hotty toddy tea and ice cold beer
beer beer cold beer here
might make us neighbors one more season’s passing

This carried me along as stream of consciousness should – in my humble opinion! – so the cold beer at the end was most acceptable!

Great shaping of you poem, Filipe–a good example of how you can keep the randomness alive while working within the structure of revision. As for the beer, since you’re at the pub and I’m bartending, I offer you a complimentary pitcher. :0)
