Clutch Bag


Clutch Bag

The clasp clasps

The clutch clutches

Grasped, in spite of herself,

She moves forward. The drive, rusty,

Clutched, bagged, clasped, grasped.

The vessel, fertile?

Fertility, vesselised? 



The altercation altercates

The sport sporting

Withering, in spite of the ultimate prize.

A white leather shoe with a matching bag.

She runs a mile and clutch!

No touch down.

No clutch bag.



The clock ticks

The game, nearly over

Hydration, elasticity: dwindling.

Time bares her no ill will.

They run a mile and clutch.

The touch down.

The clutched bag.
