The Moth
A pauper in a pinioned cloth;
the moth! the moth! the fabled moth!
with paper wings—arrhythmic drops
conceding to the heat of frost
and open-windowed sanctuary.
Her larvae, silver threads in cloth,
consuming so indignantly:
a favourite blouse, that old, green top,
forgotten in the wardrobe’s folds,
until thumb meets hole
and feels what’s lost.
