The Whisky Blot
Journal of Literature, Poetry, and Haiku
How calmly the cubes settle in the tumbler where twilight ambers. The antidote to memory Lights the body's furnace, Banishes the cold. Once at a fetish street fair a man-sized latex egg, and in it, an alien. The barrier of skin dissolving. a wet hand digs through a breech to signal safe. I take that hand in mine. I won't let go. Darren Black resides on Massachusetts North Shore. He continues to hone his poetic skills in workshops and has studied in Vermont College's MFA program. His first publication appeared in the fall 2019 issue of the Muddy River Poetry Review. Recent poems explore disability and his own experiences living with blindness. Comments are closed.
