The Shirt that I Named

It has been five years since I
Dropped my eyes in a tinted vase. Every
Thing azul. The crook of your
Arm bruised blue. And the
Shirt that I named Ophelia.

  1. The name Ophelia means help and this poems' narrator seems to call for that as well. This is an enigmatic but wonderful poem.
