Woman and Man in Traffic, Imagined
Meanwhile let's talk
of mittens: their uses
are manifold,
cold oppressors knitting
their threads into nets
to catch new fingers -
hand-wombs.
Watch them reach out,
grasp at a gust, tuck it
in a mouth - stitches
easing gums.
Look past the window
to the road: a mitten,
lost in speed.
