Nowhere

by a.d. maxwell

                           quiet
sidewalks open
             wide some naked
memory. and it is
always
later
             in some unrequited
afternoon. whose unheard
laughter
              summons out of
sunlit earth the distant
wound of
              somewhere
                            else.

 

 


a.d. maxwell studies medieval English literature at Harvard University, with particular interests in poetics, negative theology, and contemporary philosophy.
