Poems by Wanda O'Connor
In early morning
I lift my glass to the moon, try to see through it
I think it's east,
but the early morning fog has not yet cleared
I am the only human alive
and I can do anything
no one knows I am here
planning for things
waiting for things
as I walk on the surface of skin
dissecting the goods
there is an antidote
in the melancholy of a seed
the effect of rising
or a finale
the statements we make
or suffer through
we eat stones, fish
for compliments
eat the fish we kill
