Poems by Michael Igoe : “In Certain Climates” & “Elliptical”
In Certain Climates
Right over there there are infants darkly fondled, roaring mothers roll on their sides. Trying to console, but seem sunless, drinking together balanced droughts of dynamic violence. It’s a sped up version of an empty landscape.
Elliptical
Rumors stymied dreams of dying. Panic laid to rest, through mourning. Over barren fields slight brown hands grasp at their allies. Only when unbound they sweat and suffer stripped of vision they agreed to beg. They talk it over at off brand meals. They joined the ranks, of a blackened captain who believes tobacco, is a cleansing penance. They go rent rooms they’re shared with former hairdressers
retired safecrackers.
