Morgan Eklund Apologies to my Mother before my 28th Birthday I am sorry that I am the sound of a shadow— I am sorry that light doesn’t empty out from me I am sorry, I stand just outside I am sorry—I feel I am sorry the sun is incomprehensible Thirteen This—is how far away from my father There—we haven’t aged a moment. Not shadows on a wall. Morgan Eklund has poems in the The Louisville Review, North American Review, and Whiskey Island. She recently received an Emerging Artist Award from the Kentucky Arts Council. website
