The Eye Gate<\/h2>\n

Odysseus, my hero<\/h4>\n

Who taught you how<\/h4>\n

to hear the sirens<\/h4>\n

without being ensnared?<\/h4>\n

Ah,<\/h4>\n

but could you touch?<\/h4>\n

No,<\/h4>\n

that’s the rub.<\/h4>\n

And what of those piercing memories?<\/h4>\n

Don’t think you got away so clean.<\/h4>\n

That longing<\/h4>\n

you’ll carry always.<\/h4>\n

Should have locked the gate<\/h4>\n

Ken Mattson<\/p>\n
