Miscarriage
by Phoebe Anthus
Hope slips slowly
soft mineral matter of
life deferred
floats abbreviated
ragged—
Womb, as Rachel,
weeps for
they are no more,
futilely clutches
fragments.
Phoebe Anthus is a stubborn artist with her head not so far into the clouds that she cannot notice the solid, sensible things as well.
