Hi Doug,
I appreciate how the poem enacts the dropping. And how the shadows
transform into, well, something welcome and something, a last thing,
which is not. It certainly feels of this moment.
Best,Jill

Subject:snap of three
but three shadows swift
across sand as if
sails not
the thrown outlines
of something huge
about to drop
are they gifts
or bombs
