Canary
A new poem
by Rae Armantrout
1 Some folks got tortured by folks right afterwards at an obscure farmer’s market where handcrafted soda and artisanal mining showed we were on the right track. 2 Canaries served as coq-au-vin. 3 We thought of events as landmarks first, then as life-buoys, but in this too we were mistaken. |
