James Pollock: Spectacles

June 7, 2020 by PBQ Leave a Comment

Arms folded on the desk. They’re skeptical,
aloof. They have their own way of seeing
things that is slightly off, not magical
exactly, but somehow fascinating

in the way they bend the world, if not to
their will, at least away from the world’s will,
if the world may be said to have one: true
visions, achieved through speculative skill.
