memories of ascending a shattered staircase
wanting and hoping and wondering
remembering how, in the clouds and through the fog, he first saw her face
would it ever be the same, after all the wandering?
(a poem about fog in the form of an elegy with a metaphorical angle for day four of Writing 201)
(and for lucile’s the clinic – photo rehab)

“i decided eventually
this ain’t doing a thing for me”
– milk and alcohol, dr feelgood

The boy wanted to wander with wonder along the way
Oh boy did he choose the wrong day
They advised him to avoid alcohol
Didn’t mention the doll
So later he longed for a lay
(a journey in the form of an alliterative limerick for day two of Writing 201)

“if you ever see a symmetrical human face, you will have the impression that you ought to think it beautiful, but that in fact you find it cold
the human heart likes a little disorder in its geometry”

“…clarice
will you let me know if ever the lambs stop screaming?”
― thomas harris, the silence of the lambs

…the phone trilled
holding it to her ear
as she looked into the woods
she heard
the
silent “béé”
of, the
lamb

if, you
know?
