Improvisation, week 3

"For Friendship" by Robert Creeley in Contemporary American Poetry, p. 220

For friendship
make a chain that holds,
to be bound to
others, two by two,

a walk, a garland,
handed by hands
that cannot move
unless they hold.

"Linked Apart" by Darren Delfosse

Linked together
a solidarity that glimmers,
apart but intertwined
we are but one.

A spoken word,
a benign gesture,
we are tracking
in another's midst,
but stock still
in ourselves.
