Slant by Kay Ryan

Slant

 

Can or can’t you feel 

a dominant handedness 

behind the randomness 

of loss? Does a skew 

insinuate into the 

visual plane; do 

the avenues begin to 

strain for the diagonal?

Maybe there is always 

this lean, this slight 

slant. Maybe always 

a little pressure 

on the same rein, 

a bias cut to everything, 

a certain cant 

it’s better not to name.
