Poetry by Raymond McDaniel

Poetry as Escher: shifting perspective, a landscape that doesn’t stand still, and questions that fold in on themselves.

From “Unfurl”:

Your souls, if you have them,

depart without having spoken.

They issue reels and loops

of thread, filaments lengthened

by longing, coming apart

in the sky like the tails of a shower.
