Four Poems

Hello friends,

This week, four poems using four different constraints:

MAGIC (Anagrammed Lines)

There's magic in blood:
A sober, demonic light
directs haemoglobin—
This iron became gold.

---

FOR ERIK SATIE (Palindrome-Haiku)

Art: Name it, as a
won Gnossienne is song now —
a Satie mantra....

---

THEATRE (Palindrome-by-Pairs)

See a play I'm in.
Adhere!
A theatre!
A theatre! — Head in.
I may please....

---

DAYS (Lipograms*)

Monday may doom my mood.
Tuesday’s steady duty tests us.
Wednesday dawns and sends a yawn.
Thursday's truth thus hurts.
Friday air a far affair,
Saturday’s as stray as dust — as rusty.
Sunday’s sad.

(*each line uses only the letters of its day of the week)
