“I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox
and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast
Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold”
William Carlos Williams. "This Is Just to Say"
I have an ongoing debate whether
this is a poem or an actual note. It is elegant in its simplicity and in the way he
brings the sensual into the mundane.
