CURRENCIES, a triolet
(Open sound pattern repetitions with meanings circumscribed by visual transcription)

A current’s ease,
Form into mist.
Occurrence sees
a current’s ease.
A currency’s
for men too missedβ€”
A current’s ease,
form into mist.

The Haikube (2006), an ebony cube that produces an almost endless series of poems, by Matt Donovan, Hallie Siegal, and me. Each word is carved in negative relief into the ebony, moveable cube, such that, when pressed into ink, the Haikube serves as a letterpress.

This sonnet, Pharmakon, is composed entirely of titles from Agatha Christie’s novels and short stories. The color alternates with each title used.
