Solvent Poem by Suzanne Bronson

Solvent



The illusion of work and wages –
a thing that is had
or needs to be,
a thing between the fear
and a hope that hangs me.

I’ve drowned like timber standing
of a tactile worry –
the slow saturation of my children’s eyes.

I’ve ignited the prospect, the possible,
the potential – again and again –
to push back that horizon,
an end that I cannot admit or speak.

2007 Suzanne Bronson
