Sampler

the flax that makes Ferguson's
finest linen
pierced with bloodred threads, the
dictum: in Adam's fall we sinned
all.

free of slubs, the damask fit
for Judy's dinner party where
women's voices are heard above
the clatter of knives and forks
battling against the chicken cutlet.

time for a new embroidery:
back to the basic equality
of all beings
