A string of raindrops
dangling
from an iron bar reveals
opportunities for
clarity.***
As if you could escape
by followingthe path you carved
thereto its prescribed end.
***
As if, after all,
the thing that comes to mind
squared times inertiaequaled the “real.”
—Rae Armantrout (1947-), from “Worth While,” “Inscription,” “Equals” (Versed [2009])
