I’ve a poem in the May issue of Pennsylvania’s Poetic Voices. Here is the poem:
FOGGY DAY
I drove through Penns Valley
in the thick of an early morning fog
like a chess master
playing blindfolded.
You see, I’d forgotten
how to sleep
and been nowhere at all
since the virus blew through.
Now I could only hope
my long history
with this winding road
would do, instead of sight.
Truth is,
I was nowhere
still. But perhaps instinct
makes the man.
After twenty minutes the fog
suddenly lifted—as if someone
had taken the cloth from my birdcage—
like an unexpected smile.
Love this one, Steve. Great metaphor!
