"Tomorrow she will clean, her fingers craving
Solid formica, stainless steel
Breathing safety of her little box set a-right again. . .
She clutches the vision of polished oaken table
Canary-yellow tulips
Arranged in the vase
Just so
Clutches it
To her breast like the prom-dress
She never had."
from "American Still-Life" by Cory Jaeger-Kenat
