New Poetry from NER 38.4

Immigrant Aria by Rajiv Mohabir

there they blow, there they blow, hot wild white breath out of the sea!
—D. H. Lawrence

Sunset by Ramsay Wise
To swallow new names like krill, dive.

return to motion. Once this shrine
was the abyssal plain. Once Empire
shackled you. Once you answered
to monster, to dragon, spewing steam, fire
bellowing in the furnace of your hide . . .
