Form: Ekphrasis

From Kew Bridge, 1864

A walk foreshortened by the Thames
that once would flow through field and moor –
now stitched and patched with dirty hems,
a city’s outskirts of the poor.

You used to walk here, years ago
when May put on her blossom-show.
But Progress is a subtle sweep
that changes worlds while we’re asleep.

Premium Member Mother

i am not one to probe closet or dresser
I am safe with your secrets if any
as my mother asked me on her last day to get the gun to kill her

I kew all my childhood where it was and the speculum to abort the child

and I am the perfect guest and want to be alone in my dreams
of childhood to recoil and entertain a conversation with a world
