That Telling Look Poem by Sheena Blackhall

That Telling Look



One day, she looks at her husband
And the fire's gone out.

Next, it's the house sale,
Splitting up the assets.

What to do about the table?
Like a Rubik cube,
It's solidly interlocked

The table looks at her
She looks at the axe

The husband loves that table
‘Take it! ' he says. ‘It's yours..'
