She reminds me
of old, painful
geometries.
Her close-grained
rasp and enchanted,
pierced warble -
a close kiss
& a hammer.
"Some days
all you need
is one good
thought, strong
in your mind."
Her voice
is Orpheus,
looking back,
is Ophelia,
on the willow
branch.
It shakes
dullness from
the soul, the
way you clean
a coin
with salt.
