Sea Salt: A Villanelle
by Desmond Kon Zhicheng-Mingdé
The script of two brothers and a bargain
The script of turkey ham or leg of lamb
The script of Hermes and another descent
The script of fables before winnowing
The script of the old man as clairvoyant
The script of ghouls at the threshold
The script of a hand mill made of maple
The script of buckwheat and oats and rye
The script of peas and nuts and millet
The script of grinding out happiness
The script of new lights and field corn
The script of the secret on a pint of ale
The script of Cain drowned in herring
The script of Constantinople in a fresco
The script of the world’s barter of souls
The script of grief like a redder sorghum
The script of us as anonymous skippers
The script of salt and a boat sinking
The script of the sea and its taste of tears
