THE WOMAN WITH BRAIDS IN FRONT OF A TILTING MIRROR
at some angles
all it reflects
is the moon or
the dark blue
surrounding her.
If there's a
hair brush you
can't see it.
Or where her
eye looks. Or
even if she's
looking. Just
a bed, like a
bird in a
Chinese land
scape, the
details less
important
than that,
framed as it
is, it will not
fly away
