Night Table
Eye glasses
dimes, three pennies
brass house key
a dog-eared book
of Emily Dickinson,
its tiny words
washing
me over
another evening
of talking
only to myself

Re: Night Table
brief and full like an Emily Dickinson poem. You get in so much with a minimum of words. Emily would have liked your poem.
