The Cure<\/em><\/h1>\n

Sarah Gorham<\/h2>\n

CUPPED HANDS<\/p>\n

Whether left palm over right as in TM
\nor curved side by side\u2014
\nhuman hands are full of leaks. Still,<\/p>\n

if we press the fingers close,
\nby sheer will sealing flesh to flesh,
\nthey will hold something.<\/p>\n

\u2014An early disappointment:
\na hundred foil-wrapped eggs
\nin pastel colors. For the taking,<\/p>\n

I thought, and began to pluck
\nfrom window sills, copper pots,
\nthe dark toes of daddy’s socks.<\/p>\n

Then the grown-up lesson,
\nthe more I took
\nthe more the eggs resisted<\/p>\n

nesting, and capsized, wobbled
\naway. I ate one tiny handful.
\nWhether spice drops or wafers<\/p>\n

or water carried quickly
\nover land, we let things slip.
\nOur hands cupped together<\/p>\n

exactly heart-sized;
\none hand
\nalone won’t do.<\/p>\n
