The darkness of his sanatorium had to end
the goal, to crown June before dying.
Last mommy kiss, galocher
potent as the
symbols on talking boards that erupt into ghosts
when discharged
from their straightjackets.
Mother-tongue sliced open.
Boy unsexed leapt into the pane of glass at the
end of the corridor.
Id-eo-motor Effect,
planchette’s keen
eye
lost to the cupboard
of time.
Jennifer Londry’s latest collection of
poetry is Tatterdemalion, published
by Chaudiere Books, 2015. As part of poetry month she participated in a
celebration of William Shakespeare’s work by reading sonnets with other bard
aficionados. Currently she is collaborating on a project with Kim Renders and
the Queen’s Drama Department to produce a play about violence against women.
Jennifer will be one of the feature readers at Poets @ Artfest this year in
Kingston, Ontario.
