Still LifeWinter 2001 - Volume 5 Number 1
"Still Life" Digital Image and Poem By Sharon Carter, MD Previously published "Spindrift" 2000 The curtains are closed. The room smells of chrysanthemums and baby powder. A wet sheet pastes itself to the bed, drying slowly in faint brown rings. The commode is overturned. Morphine tablets lie deliquescing beside an empty glass. Someone knew he was not coming back, unplugged the TV and left.
