This Started off as a Love Poem

June 7, 2018June 7, 2018 Elisabeth Horan

Youth is you, O brother mine. Golden clock hands choose Angles, acute/obtuse Considering the dial, as does your smile. Sometimes it’s ten:fifty, or conversely, four:forty six in your face-plain the granite, too awaits a turn to be chiseled.

My Husband Doesn’t Want Another Baby

May 20, 2018May 17, 2018 Elisabeth Horan

And They Say, Poor Woman

What I Did

December 19, 2017October 13, 2018 Elisabeth Horan
