STONE

Duane Locke

On this day of intense summer sun,
The shadow that quivers on white paint
Of iron garden table has the shape
Of a rather large hand for such a petite girl,
Who is clothed only with long white gold hair.
Was it the intense heat, that made my vision fuzzy,
But I thought I saw her touch a blue stone
That sat in a white bowl on the table.
There is no stone on table, and she is far away,
Mopping her floor in a Florida insane asylum.
