"The sidewalks flash silver with mica.
Skyline smeared with geese.

By way of recognition
I lost the sound of your voice."

Nophoto-f-25x33 Hi Ryan! Great to e-run into you. Down with the Ship is beautiful.
Cheers, Nomi


152113 I absolutely love this poem :) It is yours, yes?

"Revere"

Bombardier, you laid the tracks
For our hundreds of eyes
Spine for flowers, spit azalea

The lush lawn of the vacant girls' school
Tuesday is Sunday only
No one is dreaming

Bunker Hill, I-98, the harbor subs
Like the face of a watch.
I should like to wake you, minute by minute

Clatter through the restless green night.
Bombardier, with your lantern eyes
And lantern head

If
If if
And by sea.
