“Every man’s memory<br />

Poem a Week<br />

Gary Michael Dault<br />

“Making a poem is like making a chair; a poem is<br />

as real as a chair and sometimes more useful.”<br />

--Rebecca Solnit, The Faraway Nearby (New<br />

York: Viking, 2013), p. 72.<br />

Actually, I think making a poem is more like building<br />

a boat.<br />

make a poem<br />

of sticks and weeds<br />

aloof with<br />

homely weave<br />

in a forlorn<br />

unwelcoming<br />

pattern<br />

make a poem<br />

like a stubbled field<br />

a poem on a plain<br />

of hard-baked loam<br />

where nothing will grow<br />

but language<br />

To Reduction<br />

using only rough<br />

bleached words<br />

construct a poem<br />

that will shine<br />

like a coin<br />

use the words left there<br />

with never any thought<br />

of getting back<br />

onto a desk<br />

at home<br />

use words lying<br />

in unprocessed sunlight<br />

words lapped by waves<br />

wetting the shore<br />

but leaving the poem<br />

high and dry

Travelling Palm<br />

Snapshots<br />

Tamara Chatterjee<br />

India (December, 2016) – I often find myself<br />

reminiscing about Sikkim; feeling a strange<br />

sense of calm, wonder and sudden strikes of<br />

shortness of breath. The attitude reminding<br />

me to temper my fantastical ideas of radically<br />

climbing towards the sky. We arrived at<br />

Changu Lake, surprised by the number of<br />

large construction vehicles and hoards of yak.<br />

Back to reality and closer to sea level; I still<br />

have flashbacks of the time I was jabbed in<br />

the thigh by an ill-humoured and but very<br />

photogenic yak with goofy knitted horn<br />

warmers.
