Ekphrastic April, Day 11: "Skaters"

 


"Skaters" by Marianne von Werefkin [1860-1938].

 

ice skating

at night I think of myself
as a dark presence flying

over the ice snatching
bits of private conversations
like a bat catches mosquitoes

  1. My only way now to do this is at the grocery, snatching. . . It's something to ponder about oneself.
