\nfeet in the corners of her eyes,
\nlike her gaze was walking in her dreaming,
\nseeing and being in places she’d never been,
\nnever thought to be.
\nSky reflections of water falling,
\nrain green instead of silver,
\nthe sound of a shower in the next room.
\nTile floor, a dressing room table with claw feet.
\nOld, all old, and comfortable,
\nthe wood silver washed,
\nas if surviving generations of children had
\nworn like water
\nand made the furniture friendly. <\/p>\n
It will all pass, they say,
\nwe have more time than you,
\n so come and be merry,
\n and we won’t have to notice you again.<\/p>\n
and so she wakes up with the feeling of being there again,
\nthat place that is no place,
\n that name without a name.
\nCliches, all of them,
\nand all of them true.
