Vintage poster of Donald Justice’s reading at the Poetry Center of Chicago.
We have climbed the mountain,
There’s nothing more to do.
It is terrible to come down
To the valley
Where, amidst many flower,
One thinks of snow…
– Donald Justice, “Here in Katmandu”

No Title
No Description
You would not recognize me.
Mine is the face which blooms in
The dank mirrors of washrooms
As you grope for the light switch.
– Donald Justice, “The Tourist From Syracuse”
