The Passage

The kettle would prefer to boil over,
but nobody’s filled it for six years
at this point. You wouldn’t think

that kettles have very good methods
for recognizing the passage of time,
but you’d be mistaken.

Wharved.com I am a poet. I write poems. Titles and subjects and subsequent readership are all part of one fragmented figment of our universe, and it's nice that we take it so seriously. Hopefully the craft remains and grows stronger for our children.
