** JPS NOTICE **

Jacquii's Poetry Spot is now closed to any new material being added and closed for submissions to the Poetry of the Moment and Poetry of the Visual sections.

JPS was my very first and it's had a phenomenal run! We've had poetry from some of the world's most talented writers here and artwork from great talents as well. There's still a lot of great artistry here - my poetry, others' writings, and some lovely artwork - So please do enjoy browsing the site!

For all intents and purposes - JPS has evolved into JPiC Forum For Writers (Poetry in Color) --- JPiC is a Community where open-minded writers of all ethnicities and backgrounds can freely share in the creation of literature. We celebrate diversity with the typed word... Registration is now open & 100% FREE - so come on by and help us celebrate diversity!

Sincerely,

Jacquii Cooke - JacquiiCooke.com

Purpose, Intent & Endearing Philosophy

You see - one can slap a $70 label on a package of $2.50 bologna (baloney) and swear up and down that it is actually a special filet mignon...  One can try to sell you a whole bunch of kudzu and really expect you to believe that its a $200 bouquet of rare pigmy orchids...  One can also (forgive the horrible cliché) put beautiful feathers on his/her head and promise that what you actually see is not a peacock, but rather a crown of thorns and that one is Jesus...  So along these same lines I like to think that we know the diff'rence between baloney and incorrigible weeds...  Poetry is and of the fine language of scribes that have sensitivity and uniqueness in stride and tell it right!  I understand the beauty of poesy, therefore I too expect you to understand.  Again I welcome you to Jacquii's Poetry Spot, where my purpose is to show you the diff'rence between peacock feathers & crooked thorns. more...

Pending Publication:

Obsession With Technicolor:  Preface to a Memoire in Epiphany is a book of poetry in two parts that's a testimony on the theme freedom & liberation. This aptly scribed volume explores the many methods of righting transgressions of years past; bridging the gap between perseverance & attaining freedom.  It is a spiritually satisfying read whilst maintaining the humor that is so desperately needed while in the midst of tribulation.

You may read excerpts and see the manifesto at the link above.  If interested in publishing this exquisite volume, please contact me at Jacquii@PoetJC.info.

 


 

Passion Murmurs

water in my glass; dew

supple  as a longing love,

lingering shadows

clock caws like ravens,

crow ticks crucial as subtle

cravings in my loins

tapping on floors

like whisperings of secret laws

at my love-soaked sheets

music like mambos:

wind on my window, raucous

like passion murmurs

Jacquii Cooke

Heady-sweet smells
In sconces of Waterford,
Pure as is Bohemia: mellow.
Lure me with candles.

Lure me with candles.
