Mirror

navigating by the black mirror

faint stars of the sixth magnitude

cormorant’s eye turns turquoise

motel shuttered by hurricane

meridian

on the card table, The Collected Wallace Stevens

a non-representational painter and a horizon line

fluorescent resin

the glass-bottomed boat, electric blue aquarium in the bar, the visible woman
at the museum of science

homing instinct, a magnetic chip in the brain

the sea was not a mirror

emptiness...

silver palm reflected in the dark pool
