Summary
Wednesdays on One Poem Only are Handpicked, a new feature where I go deeper into the poem of the day and discuss what made it stand out to me. Benedict Fruit Yonsiri Rojas the goose hisses in its ivory crochet suit; sauntering the stoned road, a flinch of light bathing the pigeon’s pearls, the town’s brute animal—its local needful, lazy pal might have carved off some of its benedict fruit. the goose grasps the pigeon’s wing hums a ballad, makes a sorrowful scene down the mountain, towards the spring “cut him some slack!”, swallows him clean; local conflict nicely solved, left neither a whing, nor the clumsy thief seen.
