The Waking Moment Poem by John Wilkinson

The Waking Moment

Rating: 5.0


In summer
in country places
it's the custom yet
to fill
hearth or grate

with evergreen.

Inquisitor

do not nip it
do not blaze it
do not cut it
with that knife,

a little child
ripped from surveillance,
it was bark of
your left eye.
