My Table ( Psalm 23 )
Posted: February 8th, 2018, 9:35 am
my table
framed photograph, potions in bottles,
small metal cup, empty wrappers -
- a slim book of poems
written by dead Japanese women -
a plastic key to money
a phone
I have a fire going
so I get up once every while
to tend it
4 a.m. car goes by
cat passes into the next room
she is looking for something
fire going strong now
the next storm approaching
from the west
