Michael Shepherd - 0265 This is just to say

2014-11-07 1

William,
that I'm glad that you
enjoyed the plums
which I was saving
for breakfast

I'm saving the note
you tacked on the
icebox door

for the divorce
I'm suing for
to show how selfish
you are

and later I'll publish it
to show just how offhand
a poet can be

revenge is
best enjoyed
at leisure
sweet and delicious
as cold plums

Michael Shepherd
