warming any warm letter warm



to comfort one self
to be comfortable

it takes
taking off
ones coat

inside
your house
to not belittle
the occasion

take off
ones coat
from the
warm letter
that is still
in one
of the coat's
pocket.

that is
what
the respectful guest
did,
wearing
his coat,
askew.

ππππππππππ
kraymond carver

will you
please be
quiet, please?
