Parallel Poems

Poem Sequences

Written on 14 December 2020.

Wisdom – an acrostic sequence

Worm casts of presence and absence as a single state

In flux a showing forth of becoming

Sound of water signposted at a crossroads

Direct to its origins footnotes to the silence

On a blank slate the breath of God

Mirrored on the surface a missing word

(published in Bones 21)
