A poem of mine from the latest issue of Waxwingβ¨
Thank you!!
"Physics, Lapsing" by Christine Barkley I am psychic about the physics of pain; lack of limitation, expected reckoning. Sometimes I think I have no imagination, though when I say I think I mean I worry which is a thing akin to imagining, or else married in. Then I won't ever marry, I say, engaged. I will predict a future, not tell the truth. For what instead are rings my punishment? An entropy of bone, tendon, ligament. Laws holding fast some center where I'm not ever there, always not inside anything, only losing light and mind like new nickels through an old seam. And I canβt sew up. Calm down. Clean house. Iβm the worst of daughter or wife, unrelated or witholding, fucking off for the evening. The natural state of life is night, so this is all the time. I'm bad at physics, bent into the biology of this illness.
The doubled thrill of having a poem in @haydensferryreview.bsky.social and sharing an issue with writers like @jrigamonti.bsky.social and @rosebudbenoni.bsky.social!

First post here, I guess! Feels fitting that it's my much-anticipated (by me) poem, "Semantics of Shock," with @yalereview.bsky.social.
