මුළුතැන්ගෙයි කවි

Kitchen Poems |Nicolette Stasko

Clearing off

the breakfast dishes

for the ten thousandth time

I tighten my kimono

adjust the flowing sleeves

that drag

in the honey and crumbs

move papers from one place

to another

a slim volume

of poetry falls out

I am reminded

how hard to write

something worth writing

there is a familiar ache

behind my eyes

the sky seems

much too blue

and sharp

today
