Stance Poem by Kate Clanchy
Stance
Rating: ★4.0
Now I sit my child on the jut
of my hip, and take
his weight with the curve
of my waist, like a tree
split at the fork,
like lovers leaning out of a waltz.
Nothing is lost. I was never
one of those girls
stood slim as a sapling.
I was often alone at the dance.
