Poetry


by Darren C. Demaree


EMILY AS SHE CHOKES THE ATMOSPHERE

I wanted to be a soldier
for Emily
in a world that values

the language of the soldier
more than the language
of the air that works

the soldier’s lungs.
So many dynamic words
drowning in intention

& Emily, she rises
with her hands at the ready
to protect my first thought.
