Comparisons


from the ABC set POETRY - A Passage of Motion 2

The dory boat is more like
a cutting tool, its
prow a sharp tongue
of personality

traveling salty waters in
search of supper,
four youngsters and

a fair lady, hair like
sunrise, waiting landside

for husband and two
brothers, hurrying
home before low tide.
