Washington University in St. Louis has been inviting daily poetry submissions. I submitted the following, which was published here.
The Human Eye
Don’t call me Ishmael;
I’m tired of that talk.
I live beyond the Whale
And reside now with the flock.
Oh, in harmony beneath the sky!
No longer seeking the celestial or the True;
Against waves of Fate, only an If am I.
Just a possibility beneath cerulean blue…
- James B. Moog
