So often artists have painted a woman | |
washing, or combing her hair. | |
And nearby is a mirror. | |
And there you were, crouched in the tub. | |
It was cold in the apartment. | |
It is always cold in winter. | |
But you were brushing out your hair | |
and singing to yourself. | |
And, for a moment, I think I saw | |
what those artists saw — | |
someone half in love with herself | |
and half in love with the world. |
