The Sour that Sweetens the Bitter

6 Jun

by Marc Vincenz

 
And from these shallows

the world appears refracted

a tense sense of crystal bent

 
to mend an abject of vision

So stirred are we within

our own glasses like olives

 
eyeing the sky from the bottom

or a slice of lemon

almost in almost out

 
hanging on a sliver of skin
