THE EGG OR THE HEN
From the 2024 Collection "Sixteen Odes From a Toad's Repose"
Which came first, the egg or the hen?
An old friend visits
on the anniversary
of his death—
He finds a voice
through instrument
of requisite integrity.
I recognize his laughter,
his playfulness.
He is a genie now.
He once was John the Baptist.
His is a Halo no blade can sever.
From the 2024 Collection "Sixteen Odes From a Toad's Repose" - Sixteen poems written in a five day period after two years hiatus.
