SIX SMALL HOSPITAL POEMS












frail   her slight back   a half opened umbrella

•

Old age mothers
affection on their faces
Middle age sons
caring on their hands

•

pink child
someone else’s gloves
her scarecrow hands

•

trendy
urine-yellow ‘handbags’
all the fashion

•

old tufted owl
old slanted head
like a new loaf that’s hit the floor
braces slicing his twisted torso

her hand under her shirt
scratching at her naval
looks too proper
to do the private
in public

• 
  
Sculptured black hair

longer side aflap

a sleek bird wing


Shecrow with pram
