Day 407 August 8, 2021

                   

 

What does one call the accoutrements of childhood's beauties?

The small unblemished artifice of art that used to be strewn

where we walked and lived, ate and drank, played and slept?


Hudson's used to have milk pitchers made by Hall China

with a picture of Little Bo Peep, no Super Hero.

The food and the touch of art was enough.


Our loves were no concupiscence,

Our thoughtless freedom no accidie,

and shopping was engagement with the

material world in play...

All accounts are due today!
