Biography
by Eloise Stevens

Scattered verbs and adjectives; Fragments of a life. An incomplete arpeggio, Disharmonic, chimes. A thousand grains of sand, they say, Still don’t make a cove. And the waves’ continue lapping, To wash away what I’ve known. A twisted conch of ivory; I lift, but hear no ocean. Just scattered verbs and adjectives, The ephemeral scent of notion.
Notes:
I was thinking about what you can gather by reading poems about people.
