Poetry
this kind of sky
the kind
where i can pick at the cars like hangnails,
pull out coiled fairytales
from backseats. i
unwind their pages,
wait for their melody to trickle away
in
golden kites
like fluorescent signs by the
road that
come
and go.
ELOGIOS EDITORIALES
Gorgeously vivid and undeniably nostalgic. I was struck by the simultaneous uniqueness and aptness of the figurative language.
