Three Untitled Poems by Merritt Waldon

 






Beneath sycamore

Near frozen

Lake

 

Reliving childhood

Hike along cliffs &

Wild

 

Madison

Where the Ohio

& Great Blue heron

Feed & breed

Poetry within



 

Currents & whirlpools

Barges & otter

 

Huge catfish

& Brave swimmers

Connected to the

Electricity of being




Snaggletooth rot

Wild man stalking

Reality

 

Distracted by android

Humans putting the

Flesh away forever

 

Gravity fails

Who disembodied

Memory eternal

 

These days

No truth

No self evidence

The politicization

Of all we are or seem

Beautifully destroyed
