Poem for Tuesday, August 4th, 2009


Melba

has no idea that I write
poetry
let alone that I am
writing about her
I wonder
if she reads any
if she does
it probably has a uniform
meter and a predictable
rhyme scheme and
was published many
eons ago but so what
the other day
another woman ruined
her morning because she
forgot to bring
her some blackberries
like she promised
