POET OF THE WEEK
Daisy Shepherd
Week of September 25
“come to the sea”
she whispers in my ear
i feel saltwater rush into my head
breaking
against the shores of my brain
my cracked lips know the waves’ familiar sting
the barnacle bitten shell digs
into the side of my head
i hear her
i hear her
“come to the sea”
she whispers in my ear
i feel saltwater rush into my head
breaking
against the shores of my brain
my cracked lips know the waves’ familiar sting
the barnacle bitten shell digs
into the side of my head
i hear her
i hear her
