People (poems)
I. Angelo
You militia.
Insubordinate, and thin.
How ordinary you are now,
helping the dead into holes.
II. Crystal
You girl.
Pink, to the bone.
When bouqet soups tear,
you reach for the salt spoon.
III. Twins
Both tall.
Charming, and two.
How they ate yesterday,
nobody knew.
IIII. Last
Grace.
You, remember me.
What pity engorges
your gracious eyes?
Jen Ciapsa, a linguistic medium, seeks to unravel the world through poetry. They find divinity in everything— from rap, to Eastern folklore, to classic literature, to the mundane. There is nothing too boring, grotesque, overlooked, or surreal for them; everything has a place, and they will write everything into its place.
