The FAB&PP Poem of the Month for June, 2008
gray shadows in my
vision mottled
like the background
radiation
of
the
universe
cratered
here
and there
over time
[the
portents
of its passage]
loss
of
acuity unaccompanied
by interesting gifts
only shadows
swimming as
i
try to seize
the moment
s left
calm enough when
i close my
eyes
disturbing as i
open
them
and
fight
against the
bright
blank
sheets of day
