Excerpt from unfinished
There is a spot where the Atlantic curves
Jason E. Coombs
onto the rocks beside the beach when it breaks.
There are many of these spots I am sure. I am
referring to the one place, the one in time when friends
are the waves that crash around your island at the point
where your lighthouse needs a keeper and the wind…I started writing this piece as I watched my friend and his partner take a walk on the beach by themselves after Mary and I asked them to go with us. I wrote a bit more in the car on the way back to the pousada where we would part for at least the coming week. A day later I wrote a new draft. There are the opening three couplets. 🙂

Excerpt from “Zeugma”
…
will it be said again? you broke up –
or they broke up,
it broke, or
we broke up; the inky tearsimbued my pillow, and you.
Jason E. Coombs
…That is an excerpt from a poem of mine titled “Zeugma“, published by Sledgehammer Literary Journal back in April, 2021.
