CONTRASTS poem


from the ABC set POETRY - A Passage of Motion 2

Contrasts

The prow of a dory is a cutting
tool, like the sharp tongue
of your personality

travels waters in search
of supper, as
you seek my scalp
with words of remembrance.

Nature is a voyeur, and provides
wisdom, nurtures. But, you
can destroy with a gaze
the mountains of your anger.
