Talent
Talent by Michael R. Burch for Kevin Nicholas Roberts I liked the first passage of her poem: where it led (though not nearly enough to retract what I said.) Now the book propped up here flutters, scarcely half read. It will keep. Before sleep, let me read yours instead. There's something like love in the rhythms of night, in the throb of streets where the late workers drone, in the sounds...

Safe Harbor
Safe Harbor by Michael R. Burch for Kevin N. Roberts The sea at night seems an alembic of dreams— the moans of the gulls, the foghorns’ bawlings.

Kay Roberts got me blushing, She's got my blood rushing, So I'll tell you what it is That's really going on!

So I sent her a soup mail, And this is what I said: I think you are mistaken I think you are incorrect, But...

Your beauty is blinding me, It’s...
