Today's is a skinny-little poem called 'A Moment' by Philip Schultz.
It only takes a moment to read (less than one commercial during an Oscar's break) and I like that it clues you into that fact by having most lines be only 3 words long.
The poem contains phrases/lines that define or describe 'a moment'. Some neat phrasing/images, but overall, I'm not wowed by this poem or its concept.
I do like that the last 5 lines are complete - all ending with a period. Earlier, each moment took multiple lines, but as the poem goes on things seem to speed up.
So a moment to read --> a moment's worth of 'talk' concerning it.
Favorite line: "A plea to begin over again."
