New Poetry by Joanna M. Weston

Somewhere Else

I found my brother sitting
feet dangling into nowhere
contemplating
falling off the earth
into … where?
an ocean of air
he could swim in?
an alien land?

what could he see
into the nothing
beyond the edge?
I’ve often wondered
where he went
just where is he
now
