Poems about Poetry
dickinson and the alabaster gogyohka
by Desmond Kon Zhicheng-Mingdé
that they may move home
northeast and beyond their fears
the only thing they need fear
how one’s wish is another –
she takes of his book
another suspension –
she will pot the dead violets
she will let him down
not here, not with lover’s bail
this deep reliance deepened
another rift, its splinter
another purchased something
another essaying of
what lyric issues
one more couplet to lay down
