"When I read Mitch Highfill's poems my heart beats faster and my hands get all sweaty. It's the closest I've come to weightlessness since I was an astronaut." Todd Colby Poem Kim says I want to move the mattress into the study, under the eastern window. What a great view of the sunrise yesterday morning there. I see her standing at the window though I am sleeping. She is wearing her black shift, the one she wears every morning before she takes her bath. She is holding a cup of tea and honey with both hands, her eyes lifted to the sky. Steam drifts off the top of the cup up into the books on the shelf above her head. RETURN TO BOOK LIST |
