Unknown Knowing: Daily Poem No. 1
A poetry series by Katie M. McGrath.

DEDICATION
To everything
I've lost.
To that
I'm losing:
The gold
and copper rings
in dark waves
and incessant
rumbling rocks
at Lunada cove.

The lizard skin
bound leaves
containing codes
to a troubled psyche.

The electronics
of a techie despot.
I dry my tear
before it ever drops.
Clean the tobacco
wrappers.
Break the seal
of imminent
bourbon libations
and wonder
who to toast.

Hooray and goodnight
to all who hoot
and shout tonight
beneath their smiles,
brushed fleece
and skins,
so right
and bright.

Tightening
heart,
head, hopes.

To you
and all my
love of life.
