Et in Arcadia Ego

Poetry is an art of imitation... that is to say, a representing, counterfeiting, or figuring forth--to speak metaphorically,
a speaking picture...
--Sir Philip Sidney, The Defence of Poesie

THE GHOST SHIP

DateMonday, June 22, 2020 at 10:14PM

Over the course of April, while under lockdown here in Sunset Park, Brooklyn during the COVID-19 pandemic, I wrote a thirty-part sonnet crown (also known as a "sonnet corona"; insert gallows laugh here), entitled The Ghost Ship. It now exists as a free, downloadable chapbook. It now feels, here in the depths of June, like a snapshot of a time both long past and ever present. I hope you read it; I hope it somehow speaks to you. Stay safe, stay strong.
