Woman to Woman
Jane Attanucci
There’s a funny cartoon in a recent New Yorker.
You may have seen it: a man and his therapist,
on each man’s head sits an owl.
Three stories up, we’re in your office overlooking the river,
I see a cloud of ruby-throated hummingbirds.
Somehow it’s different for us—sweeter.
