Past and Present

PAST AND PRESENT from UNREAD POETS SOCIETY on Vimeo.

Past and Present

Sherri Caudell

Wooden beads surround violet candies,

Large and small on the thinnest of navy threads.

You are flying a kite in Kalamazoo –

Searching for spaces to move about.

Spin the globe and it spins back!

Are you a skeptic of all things fearful?

You are not original­,

But here is my number.

You are racing around the world –

Sister let it go

From the bottom up;

This is better than it feels.

Trucking over past and present –

Conjuring a rigid porcelain death.

This winter in New York is overrated,

But this tent is perfect for us.
