EDITOR’S CHOICE: Bringing some of my favorite previously-published poetry back to the front page.
Poetry by Phillip Knight Scott
I envy the novelist, words
by the hundreds sliding fingertip
to screen, a playground of plot somersaulting
one sentence
to the next.
I grieve for the poet, whose
inert pen hesitates, immobilized
by the next word slipping though a fingertip,
monkey bars
out of reach.
I have yet to meet one I like.
