April 17, 2012A Poem by Molly CaraListen: You are everything you fear You are And everything you pray You are and that should be enough To fasten you To Here Listen: I’d like a Reason as much as The next guy (So much so that I sometimes believe in astrology And count things) But I’m left to my own devices Like the next guy So I improvise: I’m learning to identify my kin By dilated pupils And saturated wit and A certain insistence on uncertain Majesty: There’s Aya’s stride down Montague Street Towards and not away from There’s Alexandra’s quick saccade Across the page her mind in sync with her eyes So you are everything we’ve prayed for And everything we’ve feared Take your perch and take your flight and take your time and Give it. © 2012 Molly CaraReviews
