Honorable Mention
the sad end of the albino lounge moth
JJ Webb (beau blue)

The albino lounge moth kept running
into bright orange and mostly blue
signposts (painted by pigmy giants who'd
left leatherette barstools
spinning in a dervish hurry;
left quart cans of latex open to the air).

And every time he lit on one wet
pigment mottled his wings 'til he
looked like a jazz-crazed bumble-bee
and the danger at each warning seemed
less real and less weighty,
each splash of color dismissed another care.

When strangely, to his surprise, the paint can
lid he staggered onto - wouldn't let him go.
