Postponement
After the painting, Stiller Tag am Meer III, Lionel Feininger, 1929
Fallen shards of light
wedge against two sailboats
lodged in stillness
with blue and gold broken
above their hulls anchored
in late afternoon sun
jamming each mast with sky
pieces bunched together
that shatter the odds of speed.
