Second sight When you are young, you can only see the future. When you are old, you can only see the past. When you find yourself at the right moment in life, You can look forward gladly, as well as being happy to look back. (C)2020 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved....

Sonnet: Second Sight (II) by Michael R. Burch (Newborns see best at a distance of 8 to 14 inches.) Wiser than we know, the newborn screams, red-faced from breath, and wonders what life means this close to death, amid the arctic glare of warmthless lights above. Beware!

What was the prophecy of a slow moving floating name ? To hang a spy from the beam ? Your face lits up. The world was translating the labate grief into small mirrors. A seed explodes. A magnetized book of conduct is slapped on your face. And you start reading the script in darkness in a beautiful retreat. The approaching night engulfs the moon. An anonymous...
