Settler’s quandary

Dave BontaContemplative

were there no such thing as hell here no faith no truth no love would it matter would I have taken it to heart

how much of this is true the marginal swan the dancing girls this open road of a body

is it enough to give us the name of conquerors

Erasure poem derived from The Diary of Samuel Pepys, Tuesday 31 July 1666.

Dave Bonta

Learn by heart: tap a gap

were there no such as hell here
no faith no no love
