Mail Poem by Melanie Emikohe

Mail

Rating: 3.0


It was like all the universe' kindness
dispensed in my mailbox;
in typical days, it's just trash ads,
nagging bills, basic notices.

All of today's ecstasy,
expandable to a week
were all jammed in my mailbox;
and maybe forty-eight weeks

thereafter,
of standard anticipation, checking,
tearing, trashing.
