Thank you to Matt Bell and Matthew Olzmann for including three new poems in the latest issue of The Collagist!
What wreckage, I forgot. What
courage to sail, forgot. What
ocean? Forgot.
Poem Beginning with a Line Falsely Attributed to Voltaire
Night arrived with smears across its face
so that I’d know it was coming to me from
someone else. So I’d know I didn’t own the night—
that the night, with unpredictable arrivals,
owned me.
