    WHITE HOUSE POSITIONS 2017

    by Terese Coe


    Kellyanne Conway and Stephen Bannon. (Bill O’Leary/The Washington Post)


    For those who see no duty
    to honor, truth, or beauty,
    the taint of corrupt but gainful
    employment becomes less painful.


    Terese Coe’s poems and translations have appeared in 32 Poems, Alaska Quarterly Review, The Cincinnati Review, New American Writing, Ploughshares, Poetry, Threepenny Review, Agenda, The Moth, New Walk Magazine, New Writing Scotland, Poetry Review, the TLS, The Stinging Fly, and many other publications and anthologies. Her latest collection is Shot Silk.
