The Etiquette of Loss<br />

Maurice Devitt<br />

When the milkman left<br />

two cartons this morning,<br />

I happened to be<br />

looking out the window<br />

noticed how he seemed<br />

to linger for a minute,<br />

take time to set them<br />

in the corner of the porch,<br />

as though, just at that moment,<br />

his memory tripped<br />

and his eye caught<br />

the shadow of a blue tit,<br />

waiting for the clink<br />

of glass on the step.
