Ghost Writers (+1)

Letting the page breathe,

my pen in its well

The letters enchanted,

recasting their spell

Beginning then ending,

beginning again

Rewriting the master

—their magic amends

 

(The New Room: March, 2021)

 

 

William Tell Remembered

 

A flash of light,

a cloud of dust,

a joyous moment

beneath the rust

 

A hearty vision

with silver streaks,

unmasking boyhood

—in memories deep

 

(Garrett Hill Pennsylvania: March, 2021)
