Poem: "Reversi, Also Called Othello"

Reversi, Also Called Othello 


no matter how many turns/you make

      Tzu Pheng Lee, “Tough, Love”


Flip over a black
lie to white. Flip
coffee in a diner
mug. Flip 1st sight.

Flip a coin. Flip girls
and boys. Flip and
then flip back black
light. White noise.

Flip dark hair on
pale shins. Flip a
treasured negative.
Flip a safety pin.
