Hannah Silverstein<\/h1>\n

Where to Look<\/span><\/h2>\n

When you realize you were focused
\nall along on the wrong thing\u2014<\/p>\n

swatting mosquitos the moment
\nthe meteor flamed the atmosphere,<\/p>\n

your friends gasping while
\ntoo late you look up to see<\/p>\n

only what assumptions of familiarity
\nhave made banal, only a dome<\/p>\n

of imperfect stars, milky light
\nbridging moments beyond counting,<\/p>\n

past this moment you have,
\nby cynicism or arrogance,<\/p>\n

missed forever\u2014what, if not hunger,
\nwould you call the regret, rising<\/p>\n

like the moon over the ridge, the sense
\nof worlds moving in silence<\/p>\n

while you were asleep, the vow,
\nsoon broken, not to blink again?<\/p>\n

Hannah Silverstein<\/span><\/strong> lives in Vermont, but her poems have appeared or are forthcoming in <\/em>Terroir Review, The Ekphrastic Review, SWWIM Every Day, and<\/em> The New Guard.<\/p>\n
