　　英文詩歌朗誦短篇：Painted Turtle

　　Gretchen Marquette

　　Summer road the ring around the lake, we drove mostly in silence.

　　Why aren't I your wife?

　　You swerved around a turtle sunning itself.

　　I wanted to go back. To hold the hot disc of it and place it in the grass.

　　We were late for dinner.

　　One twentieth of a mile an hour, I said. Claws in tar. You turned the car around.

　　Traffic from the direction of the turtle, and you saw before I did, the fifty bones of

　　the carapace,

　　crushed roman dome, the surprise of red blood.

　　I couldn't help crying, couldn't keep anything from harm.

　　I'm sorry, you said, and let it hurt.

　　The relief, always, of you in the seat beside me, you'll never know.
