Ars Poetica by Leslie McGrath – Poems | Academy of American Poets

Ars  Poetica

Leslie McGrath

To have
even a
lotto chance

of getting
somewhere
within yourself

you don’t quite know
but feel

To cling
to the periphery
through the constant

gyroscopic
re-drawing of its
provinces

To make
what Makers make

you must set aside
certainty

Leave it
a lumpy backpack
by the ticket window
at the station

Let the gentleman
in pleated khakis
pressed for time

claim it

The certainty
not the poem.

I don’t know that much about furnaces

Native hasn’t read a book in twenty years

So he listens to me
