New Poems in Kestrel

 Grateful to have three poems included in the new issue of Kestrel.

Here's one of them:

 

Silk Road

 

In the burnished tree

what cold branches

now stare down

and are affixed

with the last of snow

for winter’s just a metaphor

for the kind of loss

we figure on—

forgive me,

friends.
