Susan Mason Scott
Date Unknown
Gazing at a jet trail
stitching azure sky
we lie naked, warmed
by concrete floor
of the city where we wait
for the scar to fade
near horizon. Scarlet
strangers stare.
Tsk! Tsk!
Now we’ve seen it all!
We smile at the unknowing.
Susan Mason Scott resides in Madison, Indiana, along a bend of the Ohio River. Her poems appear in HeartWood Literary Magazine, Of Rust and Glass, UCity Review, and other journals. She is a mathematics instructor for students seeking a GED, a job that bestows gifts daily.
