| Homer On The Aegean migrant wind blows in. knuckles scrape along the sail, wrapped tight, bolted down, immobile. eyes, soft blinded grapes, harbor memories: sticky blackness of tar, coating the ship’s hull; translucent blue-green water, tugging at seaweed and barnacles. syncopated shudder halts then thrusts ahead. fingers search for braille’s contours along the stilted mast motionless in the sea. |
