Eight-line Poems

A Saving Grace

A Saving Grace

In the middle of something else,
I noticed a loose end on the floor,
picked it up amd tugged on it,
saw that it led out of the room,
followed it, arrived elsewhere,
in a different room entirely,
and realised, to my elation,
I’d found a subject for today.
