In The Quiet Of The Night (by Clive Blake Cornwall) Phoetry - Visual Poetry - Concrete Poetry - Poetry


In the quiet of the night,
Where darkness steals the need for sight,
When most are asleep, I lie awake,
Waiting for the dawn to break,
Long past trying to count sheep,
My brain’s shallow, but my thoughts are deep,
My mind’s trying to put the world to rights,
But I think it might take ... several nights!

This phoem is for anyone who are bats about things that go bump in the night ... !!

This 'phoem' is entitled "In The Quiet Of The Night” (by Clive Blake Cornwall) Phoetry – Visual Poetry – Concrete Poetry - Poetry,
from the 'Phoetry Book', View Points and Points of View".

I describe Phoetry as a fusion of poetry and photography.
I came up with the Phoetry concept in the early 1990s.
Phoetry can also be described as Visual Poetry and loosely described as Concrete Poetry.

The poetry is by Cornish Poet Clive Blake,
