Crg Hill's poetry scorecard

Downed Tree Speaking, Kaw River, Prior to Celebration of Jim McCrary's 75th

For Jim McCrary and Megan Kaminski

 

My lean

into the

page

not Creeley's

but desire

so

 

Do the thing

he says

we say

that

can't be

done over

under

Hope is a rounded noun

 

lessness hope lesson

we all wish surrounded us

 

nest less relent

followed—filled—our footfalls

 

turbulence lodging dis

swallowed out our hollows

Forthcoming

 

As

outside light

dims office begins

to

slough off

flow into a

liminal

space neither

here nor there

Not

yet dark

never again light

I 

enter into

and emerge out

of 

my own

black and white

interiority

MPLS Sonnet

    -- for Scott Helmes and Michael Jacobson
