A Poem By Douglas A. Martin
by Mark Bibbins, Editor
D. L.
green bulb green eye green
red light hangs in the neighbor’s window
green issue shakes out green rugging
vie lets I could verge you
vices I could kiss
yellow honey of the knot
yellow tail not the rumble
blue clear linden in your blue in fired
blue car our first car
blue fullness of fired pointed blue raving
orange flowers in the grove
orange sun do I dare
red paper tonguing the sun
red and full and then material
red bird endlessly flying
red bell heads
