Gregory Powell Poems

worm wiggles impaled as hook
flies on line over river.
lands in bursting droplets. bobber rises
dances on surface in synch
...

Arrogant rat-dog prances
In haughty tempo
Eye to eye past homeless man
Reclined on ratty cloth
...

My friend Orion climbs the sky
We have communed since
Baby eyes first opened
Received ancient canopy
...

Midnight in the war. automatic
shots pop funereal percussion.
No blood flow, yet. Just crazed
metallic chatter from mouths
...
