September 18

by Meghan Helmich

I never left you behind
on the vaulted ceiling canvas.
Our ghosts are not living
in the hurricane's eye.
We are not forging ahead
with brows bent under the weight.
I have not wasted the last five years.

YUMMY DELICIOUS!! a lot more of this is a lot of what this site is missing...in my humble opinion. when 87% of poetry is cutesy and rubbish, this is poignant and sharp without sawing off the entirety of the reader's face. this is excellent...and i have been secretly reading your days. keep it up paper cup.
