Poetry || SubmissionsHe wore cobra snake head bootsBy Ben Landy He wore cobra head boots on the excellent surface of his arch and spoke about genome transfer protocol without using the term. The girl asked him "how old am I?" and under her eyes he saw ten years more than her gravity-beating breasts, her sculpted thighs, paired two decades younger. He wobbled momentarily, certain of obscurity testing biography's broken necks, anguished as in court, where victims are misnamed as plaintiffs under rules based on genetic meritocracy, drawn into the fragile ring a circle of discontent, sawed by her and him, together, like feathers drifting slowly, slowly, down, down, when in fact we're looking up. Send mail to Ben Landy info@ariga.com will pass it on. Ben Landy says he lives west of the Ayalon, south of the Yarkon, north of Mograbi and east of the Mediterranean. In short, he's a Tel Avivian. Feel free to write to him. He'll never complain (he says) about complaints about his poems. Today's Situation
