Poem in Place of a Trip to Niagra Falls
Angela Hibbs
Alternative content
Rock-stranded
she unrecalled sunbaths
on her backyard rocks.
She thought of rope.
Or a man with arms like one.
The helicopter released a lawn chair.
The chair’s crisscross fabric created a multitude
of frames through which to view the falls.
