EXPOSURE

by Joanna Gilman Hyde

The Tomato-coloured Couch 4:45pm

I could paint on the floor

on raw canvas

on the concrete floor of Hunter’s soon-to-be Library

& sell My Paintings

for $10,000 each

–

6:42pm

I’ve taken to making bread

kneading the dough with My Left Hand

holding the bowl with My Right

against a cushioned wrought-iron Ottoman

positioned between My Knees

like an Alewife
