The Verse
The fog arrives each morning
like a silent curator,
takes its time with the crane,
and leaves again
before the first ferry.
I have photographed the same steel
for eleven winters.
It is no closer to falling.
It is no closer to being used.

“This pairing moves me in a way I cannot quite describe. The photograph matches the silent spaces of the second stanza perfectly.”
