BRUSHED

when she  breezily
sashayed past                     
she unfortunately
brushed his newly
published anthology
onto the floor
and 
all the words 
spilled out cascaded
even broke up into
motes floating freely
motes settling down
motes and motes
leaving him just
a pile of letters
a molehill of
Times New Roman
and 
a smattering
of  Wingdings
scattered 
all over the floor
and 
then he 
sadly picked up
a dustpan and brush
whimpering piteously

and 
deciding in future
he would go back
to the good old 
clay tablets
and get a
new wife
