'...I look at you, heart of silver,
White heart-flame of polished silver,
Burning beneath the blue steeples of the larkspur,
And I long to kneel instantly at your feet,
While all about us peal the loud, sweet Te Deums of the Canterbury bells.'
~Amy Lowell

as we find a way to wipe your armpit
without lifting your arm up and away
you say, you’ve never seen me so (I forget
the word you use and replace it with close
as in, we’ve never been so close) and I say
I was thinking that…
—Kathrine Sowerby, “about your armpit”
