"To the Ruddy Duck During Hard Times
by Tara Bray
Little master who never shouts the answers, I sought you out on someone else's word. I am only a sorry girl needing work. You won't meet a lonelier lemon. I'm no ecstatic by the pond. Let me tuck you under my armpit and share your warm blue possibility, your blue bill roughed twice by wind, twice by surprise. You're beyond me ruddy duck. There is a periwinkle in the sunlight hammering out the blue distance. You are out there bobbing under the inorganic sky. I have a satchel of apples. Unhinge your bill and let me place this red against its blue. praise our honest hour. Curse our royal downfall. I believe in that curse, this impossible dialogue."
