Tag: Thoughts

Poems about thoughts. Not to be confused with “poems about thinking”, which they are not.

These poems are thoughts the poet has had, which she needed to write down. They do not deal with thought processes or thinking in general.

The naming is probably a bit counter-intuitive. However, there was no other obvious name to give it.

So, what holds these poems together? Primarily their conception as a random thought that turned into a poem. It is hard to be a poet without thinking an awful lot since one wouldn’t have much to write about otherwise.

This tag may, in other words, be seen as the “various” category when it comes to K-M Skalkenæs’ poetry.
