Fülszöveg


3 A very common prescription
i store a tube of tears in my refrigerator.
Many people must do the same.
It has been an excessively dry summer
and you use your eyes more than is good
for them, the doctor said.
At the drug store I was embarrassed
to see what it was
that he had prescribed for me.
Tears I Why, good God, I mean
I cry almost every day of my life.
If I've no better reason
I've only to relax my grip
to have my eyes moisten
at the memory of certain
scenes in old movies:
say. Gregory Peck's funeral
in The Gunfighter. Surely.
that ought to be enough.
I was tempted to say this
to the clerk when she handed over
the medication. Lady, it's not
what you think, my heart isn't
made of flint; believe me.
I hurt too. But that wasn't as bad
as reading the fine print
when I got home. Keep tightly
sealed and refrigerate
after use, it said.
If we have house guests I'll hide
the tube at the bottom of
the vegetable crisper.
And to think there are factories!... Tovább

And to think there are factories!
I picture them as being
windowless, lit by pale blue bulbs,
and containing row upon row
of workers in smocks and hairnets
who sit on long benches, bend
over long tables.
weeping into sterile tissues
for forty hours a week,
men and women who when they're asked
their occupation have to answer:
tear-maker. Vissza
