Touched

Like a shirt flapping in the breeze
brazen, flicking to reach the clouds
white, in the backyard of a sullen dusty mill town
cruelly crisp, considering the water-wrinkles on her fingers
he came into her vision like that
like you see a lone shirt from a passing window
and you look away lest you be touched
