100 Pieces of god's Artillery Backfires: Our Thousand Pieces of Gold

they ordered
the wagon wheels
be muffled, we rechristened
bloody hill,

we blasted
into the gaps
of scripture leading
the counterattack,

a small foretaste
of bloodletting would
begin what a firebrand
in a powder keg finished,

we recall The
Sundance Wives
clarion call of a rogue
leviathan.

100 pieces of god's artillery backfires. Our thousand pieces of gold.


Copyright Ms. Sage Sweetwater,
firebrand lesbian novelist

Sage:

I have had family and personal problems. Only one poem written since May. I try to review about everything you write, but have had trouble keeping up. As always, I love your imagery and the way you put things, but disagree with your conclusions and point of view. I hope we can agree to disagree on some things.

You have a unique gift for assembling word pictures in unexpected ways, which I reaslly like.

Take care,

Chip Bergeron

Look Away Silence by Edward Patterson

Martin Powers wanted an ironing board for Christmas. Instead, he got . . . Matthew Kieler, a non-returnable gift, but a gift that kept on giving. A powerful tale of survival, compassion and unapologetic love in the time of AIDS.
