Attachments Poem by Sheena Blackhall

Attachments



The postie crunches up the steps
Frost-wary, through driving snow
He bears xmas cards on his back
The annual load of greetings, of re-attachments

Out from the envelopes
Prance reindeer, robins, angels, plum puddings
A scrawl, a letter, a quick hug of memory

Some greetings come by e-mail
Via an attachment, no less. Instantly, I delete them
Like taking a bath with your socks on
Greetings at three removes
