LA in Verse: LOCAL POET an Exclusive Series

Poetry in Progress: Unearthing the Alchemy of LA, City of Verse

Local Poet is an exclusive series, a spotlight on LA’s literary explorers, urban alchemists and neighborhood emotional watchdogs… translating our streets, preserving our soul with words and weaving our vibe into pure, glittering lines of verse.

This month we feature local Poet, Morris Williams, LOS ANGELES

Winds blowing with dragon’s breath

throughout the basin

Palm trees sizzle

as the force of humidity rises

People fleeing to watering holes

to escape the dragon’s lure

This strange land must be

no other place but Los Angeles

I am Sure
