TUMBLER RIDGE Jailbreak by Kim Goldberg

 




for the love of breaking hearts and sleepless nights I will select a few poems submitted under this title as your submission to create a poem under this name "TUMBLER RIDGE"

Jailbreak

resequence into poems about locks and 

shrikes, seamless horizons and keys

the jailbreak 

is now complete


~ Kim Goldberg

Thank you Nanaimo poet Kim Goldberg
