Reading Mary Ruefle


There's a glove in the street for a week.

Never moved. Ringed now with salt.

Surely this has tragic implications.

This is a poem, afterall. Help me with this.

Hands are unbearably beautiful.

That's a good start.

They hold things. They let things go.

That's rich. I can take it from there.

For a week there's a glove in the street.
