Untitled
Surely bitter hair would have claimed tangled brushes
an unheeded night I’ve loved
a tree with soft old bark
all falling
over and over
a perfect stance
names or faces I might never know again
even
all the putrid thick smells of New York
by Ruth M. (NYSL winner)
Cloudy
Above the city
a gray wash
wet on wet
watercolor
seeps
across the paper sky
by Dash P. (NYSL honorable mention)
