What I did today
after the hailstorm
I dreamed of a plague
of mosquitoes
after the plague
I got up, had coffee
went out and bought
a wooden boot jack
I like it best when
my husband takes
off my boots
after the boot jack
I bought silver crosses
for my ears
I like it best
when my husband is
my salvation
tonight
I had no dreams so
I read poetry
my husband slept
beside me dreaming
of me, his poem
I dreamed of a plague
of mosquitoes
after the plague
I got up, had coffee
went out and bought
a wooden boot jack
I like it best when
my husband takes
off my boots
after the boot jack
I bought silver crosses
for my ears
I like it best
when my husband is
my salvation
tonight
I had no dreams so
I read poetry
my husband slept
beside me dreaming
of me, his poem

About Me
- Theresa Williams
- Northwest Ohio, United States
- "I was no better than dust, yet you cannot replace me. . . Take the soft dust in your hand--does it stir: does it sing? Has it lips and a heart? Does it open its eyes to the sun? Does it run, does it dream, does it burn with a secret, or tremble In terror of death? Or ache with tremendous decisions?. . ." --Conrad Aiken

Fave Painting: Eden
Fave Painting: The Three Ages of Man and Death
From the First Chapter
The Secret of Hurricanes : That article in the Waterville Scout said it was Shake- spearean, all that fatalism that guides the Kennedys' lives. The likelihood of untimely death. Recently, another one died in his prime, John-John in an airplane. Not long before that, Bobby's boy. While playing football at high speeds on snow skis. Those Kennedys take some crazy chances. I prefer my own easy ways. Which isn't to say my life hasn't been Shake-spearean. By the time I was sixteen, my life was like the darkened stage at the end of Hamlet or Macbeth. All littered with corpses and treachery.
