Reflection
I wasn't reading a particular book when I wrote these poems. Instead, I was wondering about how "stretchable" language could be. And, how most all things counter-intuitive are so, so wise. The magic that night brings to our poems. Yes!
Yellow's Blue
How poems beg the moon
to conjure rhyme
or shimmer
How too nights jot
through yellow’s blue
Or stars mood the ever-lines
and pencils dream
How poems spill or bask the moon—
what’s scribbled in between
Larew's poems have appeared in Honest Ulsterman, Contemporary American Voices, Poetry South, Live Encounters, The Iowa Review and KNOT. His most recent collection, Mud Ajar, was published by Atmosphere Press in 2021. www.HiramLarewPoetry.com
