For Tomie and Curtis
Damselfly
When you spot a damselfly
Caught in a spider’s thread
Blow gently to release its wings
And so, unknot your dread
Three Tiny Clothespins
Wood and metal, I pinch you open for doll clothes, cotton, silk, or gauze. Fasten to a string—a fishing line is jocund company—all in a row like hung socks and sweaters in the boiler room where cold is stored.
