One poem by Gil Waters

untitled
by Gil Waters

clouds
         signal
the widening gap

intermittent

appearance
of blue

between what we think
we see
and what we see

though praise for the monosyllable is endemic
I'm not convinced

I must name each bus
with its passing      such

multiplicity of faces
the darkened spaces in the windows
the invisible

thoughts that lie
to the side

to the side
we see

no more

a mono-syllabic
          eye
in the glass
domed
night
