One of These Things Is Not Like the Others
A woman screams.
Another was alive just a few days ago.
Everyone else looks dazed
except Nussbaum,
who turns his collar up
& furtively appraises
the mortal brilliance of blood.
Context means a lot.
You can’t know how much
until you know that Nazis,
possibly allegorical figures,
stand as if waiting
to push off in a small boat.
HOWIE GOOD's latest book of poetry is The Complete Absence of Twilight (2014) from MadHat Press. He co-edits White Knuckle Press with Dale Wisely, who does most of the real work. Find more on his blog, Apocalypse Mambo.
