In the Details: Most Benign

This week the theme of my poetry is: utility.

Also, this week I wrote a short blog post that sort of brings together my love of NFL football and poetry. Feel free to read "Poetry, and the Flea Flicker" here.

Most Benign

Of all the
Elements, water, with its
Supple shoulders and meditative
Curves seems
The most
Benign.
But she's the one
Managing 
Decay,
Picking incessantly at
Granite canyons and
Sucking at the eye of 
Hurricanes.
