Leprechaun Lagoon Poem by doug bentley

Leprechaun Lagoon



i peered into a glass pool
where, it's said, leprechauns live
but found no golden pot there, no
rainbow hued. no magic mushroomed.

all i saw was a sparkling crystal
city. its ice block skyline
faces an unfathomed black well.

all around, sharp as any damocles blade
ever carved swirling mountains:
molded, shone steel.
