Poem of the Week, Armstrong, JW Mark

We now return to our regularly scheduled programming. The school year has started, and strangely we feel more normal because of this. A little astronomy, a little cheese, it's all good. One small step for an editrice, one giant leap for a Toucan....

Armstrong

by JW Mark

That’s one, compressing boot grid gray

tangential powder Small step, packed

commissioned paw, Pataskala’s own,

initial print compressing dust.

black orbit bruised foot signature.

For man squash ball one giant leap

Dominion dark for mankind squashed

By silver craft set down he claims

A mozzarella sphere white orb

On top the moon, away in space

Five digits pressed assert a world

Compacting dust the cosmos claimed.
