painting by George Tooker
too many crumbs for a broom
They linger,
still play in the keys,
stick to my fingers
with marmalade.
I sip coffee impulses,
snack between words
that spill to the desk,
litter the lunchroom
in crossword kisses.
I wear my best
alphabet outfit,
see London, see France,
munch and crunch
the sultry dance,
the sideways glance,
the clickety-clack.
