Every day that begins with creativity is a good one. My new poetry collection is on Amazon Kindle. “Looking For The Laudable.” Other poetry can be found at susanpollet.substack.com along with my artwork.
I would love to share them with you.

October
By Bill Berkson

It’s odd to have a separate month. It
escapes the year, it is not only cold, it is warm
and loving like a death grip on a willing knee.

A combination of cozy and horror is my favorite.
Do give it a read

Chaos beckons me
Illusions of calm waters
Deceive my reason

Tight surface tension
Suggest the calm Façade hides
Severe rip currents

When it is hauled – dissolving, hard to see
as what was once a human being –
out of the winter lake,
they gape in silence:
puffs of vapour stand for voices.

Brought to shore, it lies upon a canvas sheet;
the brightly painted rowing boat
is dragged up on the freezing mud,
and those with jobs to do leave in relief.
The rest look anywhere but at their dripping catch,
and wait until the surgeon comes
to certify the thing is dead.

It’s whisked away,
laid out upon a table, stainless steel —
and then the slicing and the sawing,
and the grim performance
of the modern haruspectic rite
that seeks for omens, not of things to come,
but of the past.

Here, trapped within the folds of grey,
a bullet’s found, striations mapped;
upon the wrists and ankles, barely visible,
abrasion marks.
The organs bottled, tissues laid on slides,
and dental work recorded...
finally the closing, crudely stitched.
The corpse is slid into a chilly drawer,
the table’s sluiced,
and there’s just time for sandwiches and tea
before the next one’s wheeled along.

Examining the entrails, though, brings no success;
the days drag past, then weeks,
and after months the clockwork of investigation
slows, winds down, and other cases
take its place.
The human jetsam – missing
certain bits and pieces – is reduced
to smoke and ash, unmourned, unmarked.
From water into air, then fire,
and finally it’s laid in earth.

Seaside Sparkle
The light that from heaven descends,
shimmers on the sea to the west,
feeling for a moment transcends
and leaves me by goodness possessed.
