not quite over the divorce

after
the divorce she took up arts
and crafts
down at the local
community center
where they
have the bake sales
on Saturday morning.
she started
gluing sticks and leaves
to white canvas
boards.
small pebbles and smudges
of dirt,
feathers.
broken shells of bird
eggs.
shards of glass,
discarded sections of snake
skins.
she was always in the woods
digging
things up to make her art
with.
she called each new piece,
Bert, followed
by a number.
