Join David Lindert as he reads selections from his new book Teargarten. The book is a collection of 40 poems and will be available for purchase.

I believe in poetry
because poetry is a whole story and stories are short
Energy flows through the shortest path
While writing long stories
I start losing myself in a vicious circle of mind
as the mind rebels and changes
Into a poem I put all of myself genuinely
and as it stands alone in its collection
it is symbolic for life
I do not use dots because
I do not believe in a closed circle
Life flows on a sine wave in circles

Teargarten

wild fawns
in basic labels
Teargarten dawns
spent on the tables
my greatest loss
I‘ll water your cross
