dVersePoets Prompt – Re-Joycing in Poetics (and Exile) –
hosted by ManicDaily (a/k/a Karin Gustafson)
*
karin, in her prompt at dVersePoets, regarding forms and styles and expressions of “exile” says :
“Exile, like love, transgression, death, is an archetypal storyline.”
then continues with examples religious and literary, from ovid to joyce and even within the hobbit series
the excerpts from ovid and joyce were particularly nice i thought
by go by and check it out, there’s more in her thoughts on the subject
my own take, based on my recent engrossment in my wife’s knee replacement, is both easier, and harder, to use as my prompt response, than conjuring up distant memories i thought i’d exiled and am maybe not ready to contemplate their return yet 😉
which is a round-about-way of saying i’m too deep in what i’m in to do more than my current subject, helping my wife to her new bionic self 😉
happy father’s day!
and if you’re in exile, remember, the prodigal son (or daughter) always got the most press, uh, attention 😉

Racing in Exile on Father’s Day
today
we won’t be out searching for a
restaurant good enough
to dine in yet –
one
inexplicably not busy
today
this father’s day
i told my wife
her
scar tissue racing her
ability to bend and move
her new knee
to
new usefulness
she was my father’s day card
signed sealed with kisses and promises –
her thirty year knee, she, and me
i said, will dine just fine on my texas-vermont tacos
