Kinetic Writing
I have run across Kinetic Art again recently and it made me wonder about the possibility of kinetics being applied to the written art form. In the visual arts it is not so much about a "moving" picture or words like in film media, but about the illusion generated by the movement of the viewer around a static artwork. Could this be done with poetry or prose? Enter an attempt if you like :)
move with the waves
the water grabs my hands
and pulls me underneath it's large body
my lungs fill with salt and copper
it anchors around me
yanks me further in
is it falling if i am surrounded?
is it dying if i am held?
i must be simply floating down
until the waves spat me onto
the sand
i am no longer swaying in the sea. it no longer yearns for me
