iO: A Journal of New American Poetry » A CONVERSATION WITH: BRIAN FOLEY

A constellation’s a man-made illusion of connection. Its up to us to make them appear. Every stars’ it’s own island. But so what. They’re still beautiful and unfamiliar each night if you want them to be. So we continue with the stories. We make a shape and feel better.

 

The Constitution is my attempt at a shape.
