Poem inspired by Andrew Wyeth’s painting, Christina’s teapot (1968)

Left alone

On the table

Mrs Teapot

Seems so distraught

 

It’s been a while

Since her mistress ’s been on exile

She seems so tired

This little teapot over there

 

Maybe she ’s seen too many things

Maybe she is upset having no one to talk to

upset with the strange atmosphere

Of this mansion down here

 

There’s a crack on the teapot

Just like her mistress’s mind

She left her, it’s been a while

Since that man in black took her outside
