TWO POEMS<br />

By Kathleen Latham<br />

Cubism<br />

I picture you on my bed,<br />

that water-faucet face of yours<br />

dripping<br />

with self-pity.<br />

I can’t remember your eyes,<br />

though I know we argued<br />

about their color.<br />

I can’t remember<br />

the feel of your hands<br />

on the small of my back<br />

or the sound of your voice<br />

with another<br />

excuse.<br />

These things were mine once.<br />

I thought I would carry them whole.<br />

Yet here I am,<br />

seven years on<br />

with only<br />

the<br />

drip<br />

drip<br />

drip<br />

of a<br />

man<br />

to haunt me.
