THE GRASS WIDOW If you haven’t heard of the grass widow, hang around. She’s fond of fires, is half seas over for flumes. Doesn’t draw the blinds at night— prefers the moon and her convolutions. They say she stitched closed the beak of a meadowlark. Sing-songed, the grassland ocean in her throat. Full as a tick and twitching. * |
