Text of poem -

The Marksman.
Nature is still
with us; the moon wanes and is not consumed.
The only nostalgia
is for language. Our muse now is the computer.
Priming its software it fires round upon round
of vocabulary in the poem's absence, wounding us ever more fatally with the accuracy of its information.
