Poetry
by Michael R. Burch

Radiance
by Michael R. Burch

The poet delves earth’s detritus?hard toil?
for raw-edged nouns, barbed verbs, vowels’ lush bouquet;
each syllable his pen excretes?dense soil,
dark images impacted, rooted clay.
The poet sees the sea but...

O, September, I feel the subtle scents of dandelion days melting into oblivion

like a canary cracks open its cage with a song
listening to the nightingale with roses
flying like a throatful soul escaping

Snow, Snake, Snow, Birds, Sickness, Sitting
So many, maybe millions
No, billions. Trillions?
Of stars, a quiet, hot snowfall
of white stars; sandal season squall.
Each birch tree here outdoing
January's record accumulation.
Weeks of hour after hour after hour
upon day upon day upon day of
birches'...

A measureless rhythm rules the night—
few have heard it,

sleep unaware of the nightingale's call
while the dew-laden lilies lie

the passage of time, alone,

My Hunger For Silence
"And you, O my Soul, where you stand,
Surrounded, surrounded, in measureless oceans of space,
Ceaselessly musing, venturing, throwing -
seeking the spheres, to connect them;
Till the bridge, you will need, be formed -

Crashes,
Past Churches among Coals
And Faces lined, tunneled by ants, cicadas
The mouths of Sad dead Men.
Gray Sky tears Into Dirt,
Cars and...
