Love when I open a magazine and the first poem is fantastic @bridgetlowe.bsky.social @newenglandreview.bsky.social
Photo of a poem in a magazine: Ars Poetica By Bridget Lowe But I knew the end, had already been there. Touched its elongated snout, the awful hairs. Watched it pushing its pie tin around the backyard, its tiny crossed eyes so close to the ground. Wondered at the plan as I was sent back, my shoe filled with blood, my path so queer. At school I walked a thin perimeter of chalk. Impermanent, I begged the above for his sweet mother love, the pelican that bent its neck to open the fount of pure blood from its very own breast but he sent to me this to figure instead and there I began my lifelong work—rook di goo rook di goo said a couple of dirty pigeons in a hazel tree.
