Too obvious, too obscure?
August Sunday Afternoon
Just touches of yellow
and the odd crumble to powder underfoot
and across the table
hair with equal touches of white
Lines etched in her face
drawn out from concentration on an object
and the paper beneath her hands
or cut in
from the petty relentless tortures of her imperfect mind
but soon the quiet will come
in its shroud of white
