Here's my response for Encourage Home Industry.


Soap

Angelical, swore he
said her name was
Mary or Dorothy.

In the photo before she
became so famous,
pink and pearly.

Lost its way here
poorly met,
a diamond in the mist.

Hopeless grey where
reaches yet,
the earth in trembling fist.

Emma picked clean
the crag this time,
half-machine that grew

up without a gleam.
Far richer than green slime:
bubbles in the black brew.

After everything had set,
as if the soap was offering,
we found the holy thing.
