Crossing

My insect-like anticipation, the blind 
reach for a child's hand

I squeeze your small, wrinkled fingers,
call you my king

the curvaceous floating of laughter
flung from down the street

spilling empty, like letters faint 
but acidic with secrets

memoriam

Baby sis (whose birthday was in Jan) and I didn't feel we could bear to celebrate our birthdays this year. So we've put them on hold...
