the wake
by rita dove

Your absence distributed itself
like an invitation.
friends and relative
kept coming, trying
to fill up the house
But the rooms still gapped-
the green hanger swang empty, and
the head of the table demanded an empty plate

when i sat down in the armchair
your warm breath fell
over my shoulder.
when i climed to bed i walked through your blind departure.
The others stayed down stairs
trying to cover the silence weeping

WHen i lay down between the sheets
i lay down in the cool waters of my womb
and becomethe child
inside, innocous
as a button, helplessly growing
i slept because it was the only
thing i could do . i even dreamed.
i couldnt stop myself
