Love in the Time of Covid

HomePoetryLove in the Time of Covid
Summary:
all she wanted was a svengali and someone to hold her

Wore the devil’s broken heart on her sleeve

as darkening stain on unused bridal veil,

filled cellar with sea water

so she could become Siren

and sing herself to sleep

 

Diving from the kitchen sink

believing she was swallow. Vowed to

bequeath the Olympic medal to her mother

 

His suburban wife and children mere mirages

reflected in rusty bath taps –

behind the mask her tears turn to clay
