Opus 151
by Anne Knish
CANDLE, candle,
Flicker and flow–
I knew you once–
But it was not long ago,
it was
Last night.
And you spoiled my otherwise bright
evening.
From Spectra: A Book of Poetic Experiments, 1916
The Spectric movement is not so genuinely appreciated as the Imagist or Vorticist movements, but the group produced frankly credible and original poetry.
