#2248 -- everyone looks down

 


2248

7.55

25.ii.26

everyone looks down

ekphrastic for Marshall Claxton’s 1851 ‘The Dickinson Family’

 

they make of opportunity

a locket, clean hands, the tight cravat

 

little princess coiffed

 

frame gilt

 

so rosy, later patronize

 

they all know who they must be

 

they must never see where they are
