Miracle Ice Cream – The Poetry Monster

A poem by Adrienne Cecile Rich (1929 – 2012)

Miracle’s truck comes down the little avenue,

Scott Joplin ragtime strewn behind it like pearls,

and, yes, you can feel happy

with one piece of your heart.

Take what’s still given: in a room’s rich shadow

a woman’s breasts swinging lightly as she bends.

Early now the pearl of dusk dissolves.

Late, you sit weighing the evening news,

fast-food miracles, ghostly revolutions,

the rest of your heart.
