First Place Winner Teen : Julienne Regan

 

                

           Him, Remembering

 

cup on table’s edge

still

and quietly kept

against a pale wall

 

a sable outline

papercuts the eye

 

behind it

a chair is empty

vacuum blurring focus

magnifying cup’s reflection

 

once was hers

in focus

now cataracts have won

and she has faded to shadow

perhaps she remains,

chalk dust in the air.
