CONCURRENCE

 

Each day’s terror, almost

a form of boredom—madmen

at the wheel and

stepping on the gas and

the brakes no good—

and each day one,

sometimes two, morning-glories,

faultless, blue, blue sometimes

flecked with magenta, each

lit from within with

the first sunlight.

 

Denise Levertov

(Once a month or so we’ll feature a new poem selected by Debra Elisa Wöhrmann)
