Honorable Mention
Print of Blue
Emusing (Lois P. Jones)

If I spend the rest of my days circling the earth
maybe I'd remember the formula for creating
clouds like flotillas of icebergs on seaglass.

Maybe I’d crack the blackened sierras
like dark hulls of walnut, expose the DNA
of creation so I could taste the meat of the nut.

Perhaps I know enough to understand
I had some part in this and that the flesh
of the earth is not so different from my own.

I’ll think I’ll turn the sunset into tangerine
take a piece between my lips, decipher
its juices, close my eyes and never forget.
