Quotes From "Shipbreaking" By Robin Beth Schaer

1
Current / is the cure for both a stopped heart / and one that beats too much. / And if it must be shocked twice, / the surgeons call it a reluctant heart. Robin Beth Schaer
2
I want to promise you / permanence, my constant orbit, but even continents / are revisions. I am only your diving bell in water / hemmed by shifting plates. Robin Beth Schaer
