This could stand on its own: "A simple thing. / A white blouse. / A button undone."

I enjoy Dave's poems a lot, for their understatement.

Wow, love all this imagery! This poem caught my eye -- makes me rethink a white blouse, being a girl as pale as a ghost who never wears white! "... that Tony Bennett could harp / in his sleep." Wow.
