unclean
ravens above ...
will be
a blessing ...
but, wouldn’t you
rather us vacuum up?
come home,
walk on bogus rugs ...
at least the plates,
once rinsed by hand
—and set at this table,
where your own glass is
poured over half-full—
should have plenty ...
i am not sure
whether the door can remain open.
... perhaps we won’t have enough
faith ...
here, eat ...
what has been dead
for some time—& frozen
—let a good wife prepare ...
then drink. take
two bottles of wine.
