The Pink Thread by Eddy Jordan
Eddy Jordan’s poem “The Pink Thread” appears in the 2016 volume of the University of Colorado Honors Journal.
When I pull the pink
thread in your ear
your brain gets thinner
and hums. It sounds
like so many
tiny teapots
in an oil drum in
my chest. Your eyes
water and soften and soon
you’re a long pink thread
everywhere.
