Carol Ann Duffy, "Text"
Excellent. Thanks for sharing. I particularly like how the line "arrives with a broken chord" contains the only slant rhyme in the poem; in effect, 'chord' "breaks" the rhyme scheme, in a line describing brokenness.
She is incredible. There's always something that she does that seems small but is pretty weighty.
