World Poetry Day, 2019

World Poetry Day, 2019

A poem is outline and indication,
possibility and shadow;
Companion to the eye, the ear, and soul;
enamoured of 
the comma and ellipsis…because,
within a reflective breath
there is acreage enough
for the loom 
that weaves language
into the whole cloth
upon which this,
the banquet of being laid out,
becomes a universal meal
that sustains us.
