For a Girl With White Gold Hair Who Left Only Her Skirt on a Stuffed Chair: part II


Wood Carving by Chris Nixon


For a Girl with White Gold Hair
Who Left Only Her Shirt on a Stuffed Chair
part II


The snowy egret flew,
Water dropped
From the yellow feet.
The drops disappeared
Into the white sand
As she disappeared
Into the dark night.
The egret's wings
Have the shape of her sleeves.
