#reverb 10

A defining moment from this year…

Impossible

to choose any one moment

moments accumulate

into events

which heap into what was

a skipful of has been

somebody’s smile

warm hands

a poem re-read, luminous

hearing passion at the open-mic

white wine and ice in three glasses

a friend dying

in planes, pretending

and the moments

like waves

surge forward

retreat

surge forward

repeat
