She is a woman who keeps her windows clean
Scrubs clockwise with vinegar and day old newspaper
The daily obsession took hold when her son died
She says:
I know he is not here but a better place
Not London or Paris but the other side
just the other side of the window pane.
She says:
Glass is a thin thing but a stubborn divide
Both of her red hands rise, flat, to touch in mime,
as if to clarify that which might be unclear.
