21ST-CENTURY POETRY American Ego

We collect stories,
lithographic lies.
Postcards of fairgrounds,
ecstatic faces,
wildernesses of vintage evergreen
conquered without consequence.
Blithe knives,
we see ourselves through shot glasses,
a settler’s drunken dream.

MS Evans is a poet and visual artist living in the US state of Montana. 21st-century Poetry is edited by Andy Croft, email [email protected]
