She bleeds all in her
dress on the back seat of the taxi
Home from the bone
Another good girl dawn
Even in my Emily Dickinson
silence
I can always hear the click
click click
Of the bitch about to
pounce.
Although I dream of
sitting among the big cats
Don't you know
I’m low
in the zoo order
from maneater to shrew.
Later, at the dry
cleaners, the man says
the dress would the
multitudinous seas
incarnadine. Too bad,
I sez
It was one of my favorites
