REVISITED


Not exactly original or
poetical to observe

the earrings
                    winking
down from my bathroom
cabinet

sweetener tabs incongruous atop
my bachelor coffee tin

the nightstand bobby pins or

conditioner
shampoo
toothbrush
(pink)
resident now in my shower

the pillow soft beside me
redolent of you

all this and none
is new –

what tragedy
if no one else
had felt this way before.

An altered I
winks at past and tomorrow
and opens now
opting not to watch
          this once
for spiders amongst the bedding.
