I LIKE TO HAVE MY HEART ATTACKS ON THURSDAYS
Three candle flames, one sea-scented, dance
along with Boyz to Men singing about boys to men,
and, filled with coffee, Cummington's poet
observes the steam rising above my body's rage.
All these and gifted salts from sister Crystal
converge on my senses with one commonality:
the poem they form at my feet drifts over scars,
and it sings, it rocks, it gentles me.
