architecture seas,
sinister sapphire hair breaking against
a ship in hunger.
the Italian is surgically cast to his Rome,
cast to depths.
the winter captain scorned. missing.
on a sawtoothed shoreline path to peril,
he lies in Italy’s off-world,
the morgue of Nereus.
I love this one, but you already know that.
ReplyDeleteI like the short, choppiness, and you did a great job with the 'ssss' sounds of the sea. I can't remember what the literary device is called...
ReplyDeleteIs this about that cruise liner wreck? Haha
This poem was made by taking excerpts from three different news stories and rearranging the words and making minor changes to them. One of the news stories I copied from was about the cruise liner wreck, haha. I also took from a news story about the cast of Jersey Shore and another one about Mogadishu.
DeleteDid you do this physically? It'd be cool to see a picture.
