Boketto

My poem, Boketto, was just published by the Orange Rose Lit Magazine. Here is the poem:

Boketto

Sleepless once again
I use
the Sturgeon Moon

to pick my way
through a landscape,
strewn with boulders

that overlooks the sea.
I head for one called Poseidon’s Throne
so I might rule the waves,

but I’ve caught the sea
at turn of tide
and for a short while

time stands still,
and I stare
at nothing at all.
