The Wine-Dark Sea (Ii) Poem by Mathias Svalina

The Wine-Dark Sea (Ii)



Blank here, grass-cracked
& babbling parking lots.
Nothing moves
to cross the day.

Please, one thing
simply reap a meaning.

This new accent dares
of burnt skin:
call it stammering,
call it self.

To say its name
takes so much mouth
& all I know to say
satiates.

Toward is true,
neverleave is true
as are the willow threads
the suns shed.
