O Anna Niemus Poems

Union Carbide desecrated
India with
killer insecticides
brought to Bhopal
...

Though poets often claim otherwise
... mercury is a much closer consort
to the sun than is the moon.
But the mind's mercurial thoughts
...

Sometimes He calls
through a look
or from a picture in a book
Sometimes He whispers
...

watching a long train of coal cars.. knowing
that God with 1 thought can turn every piece of coal
into a diamond as He can turn an apple seed
into endless orchards of apple food.
...
