Honorable Mention
Into a flowerless season
Marty Abuloc

Into this unflowered season
a slow universe
covers your memory with the thick
liquid night
and shapes your changeless magnitude
from the quiet landscape

so that everything you are
your sacred silence
your absence
your curves
your eyes closing like
great silent wings
is remembered precisely as it was

as if in your absence
a tremor rises in the void
to disturb a delicate chime
all consciousness gathers deeply
into where you are not

as if shadows cannot seal you off
or your memory
from being searched for
into the far frontiers
of your leaving

until your pure shape
is untangled from the wide nets
cast into the depths of the heart
and you rise to embrace the full soundless sky
in your naked breast

between your pointed constellation
a soul is laid to rest
