A Creamy Moment

By Peter J. Dellolio

		A creamy
moment, a
certainly odd
and fortunate
mixture of
good diction
and sea salt,
the kind of
softly spoken
(but not too
altruistic) epigraph
that a rusty
old navy boat
provides, never
seeming, to be
the wrong side
of summer or
the left drawer
in the tumbling
walls of loftiness.
