Pam Brown: Where Am I?




a sheet of pills
slips from the drawer
to the floor

not near a radio

can't operate
the dvd player,
don't understand
the digital box,
(do I care ?)

air, breeze and leaf
(someone else's window)
tinge the time
(someone else's clock)

sockettes
drying
on the door handles

a precious feeling
like a fungus
or a furball
in my throat

you could
freeze a lioness
in there
that fridge
is huge

can't find any
powdered milk

Pam Brown is a former poetry editor of Overland and is currently associate editor of Jacket.
