IR ONLINE POETRY: “Portrait of Wisdom Teeth Surgery as a Day on the Lake” by Adrian Sanders
I practice in the mirror—
fish-hook each corner of my mouth
with a nervous index finger and pull.
I practice my breathing,
brush the scale enamel off my teeth,
open my mouth wide like
the surgeon will do with his rod and reel hands.
IR ONLINE POETRY: “This is a picture of my grandparents” by Adrian Sanders
they knew I was taking/which is to say they posed for me:/both with their bottom teeth jutting/out over their chins/like a 1966 Ford Thunderbird/taking off of a precipice/
papaw’s hand is over mamaw’s shoulder/his knuckles are/knotted by arthritis/(which he calls Arthur/who he calls a friend)/and the rest of his hands are roughened/from a childhood of setting, stripping, and hanging tobacco
