The Seasons Confuse, By: Niall Quinn

May 21, 2025 by Niall Quinn

The Seasons Confuse, By: Niall Quinn

The seasons confuse in their
Stasis & change, fixing nut-
Thatches’ eyes in lit permanence,
Locked dead on a shed’s floor :
Where a bicycle and a dirty doll
Remain mausoleum limp in her
Ever-new stare : both sad, shout-
Ing feathers glued to stone – not
Forever – Here.
