No Man Is An Island
You speak to my spirit with logic,
I answer your mind from my soul
With words in two disparate languages,
our discourse to never be whole
Your left hemisphere sealed in a vacuum,
when my right hemisphere comes to call
Though Donne said, “No Man Is An Island”
—you’re marooned there adrift toward the falls
(St. David’s Pennsylvania: February, 2020)
