woman in the window

i remember
staring into a painting

by edwin hopper

at the gallery downtown.

the starkness
of it all.

the dull light of neon
from
a bar

below.
an empty street. a woman
in a red

dress at the window.
leaning
out.

her body loose with
desire,
staring  at no one.

at nothing.
at everything.
