Poem-a-Day
 
(or, to support my work with a small monetary contribution, see the Substack link on the left)
 

Holocaust Museum

A roomful.

A room
Full of shoes.

 

Soles and
Loose laces.
Flung tongues.

 

Most pairs
Split up,
The right

 

Right here,
The left
Somewhere.

 

Waves of shoes
Like a photograph
Of the sea

 

Taken in a storm.
Crests and troughs.
Dark water.
