Your poems

February 8, 2020 By JD

Upon your penitential morning,

some skull must rub its memory with ashes,

some mind must squat down howling in your dust,

some hand must crawl and recollect your rubbish,

someone must write your poems.

…from “Mass Man,” by Derek Walcott, in The Gulf and Other Poems
