2. The Sick Child
– Rijksmuseum
A small child
is ill, has wakened.
It is winter, past midnight
in Antwerp. Above a wooden chest
the stars shine.
And the child
relaxes in her mother's arms.
The mother does not sleep:
she stares
fixedly into the bright museum.
By spring the child will die.
Then it is wrong, wrong
to hold her –
Let her be alone,
without memory, as the others wake
terrified, scraping the dark
paint from their faces.
– Louise Glück (1980)
