Black and Red All Over

She’d enunciate with fingers. Deft language in deafness lingers on blackboard. Darkening reflection of smoke, Wing’d knowledge of their names, baroque. Bright blackbirds smack against the Springtime phantoms. Where’s the curious young bantams? Forc’d blackout! Uninspired for many days past, a latent snack of sun-harrass’d blackberries. Must teens wait til they’re twenty-one? The shut-ins, in digitized stun, play blackjack? 5/3/2020 Compounding The Verse Poetry Contest Sponsor: Joseph May

This part by itself was sheer absolute gorgeous poetry."Uninspired for many days past, a latent snack of sun-harrass’d blackberries."
