the dishwasher,
fishing clumps of her hair
out of the shower drain,
varicose veins, toenail clippings.
I mean, you don't know
how lucky you are.
Have you ever considered a career
in grief counselling?
You know what I mean.
Is that your school tie?
Old Boys luncheon.
Indestructible, these Grammar ties.

Robbie Colburne,
