Sappho In Her Study Poem by Kelly Cherry
Sappho In Her Study
The files in the filing cabinet
Are all talking at once.
Mumble jumble, say the files
In the filing cabinet.
The desk, discreet,
Discloses nothing.
Rough drafts live
A roustabout life,
Tumbling from shelves,
While books, published
and smugly replete,
No longer feel the need
To compete.
Stationery sprawls,
Casual as sunbathers.
In the locked drawer,
Love letters lie.
