Remembrance
The
last time I saw you
did
I notice one more crack
in
the skin of your step-well
the
last word that you spoke
was
it a plosive or a deep glottal?
was
there a faint smile or a grimace?
a
slight movement of the hand
or
a waking call?
Festivities
The
ebb and tide of selling
rainbow
dreams
the
heart thumped
with
great expectations
sweat and grime
moisturized
the skin
The
LED lights made the eyes fireflies
the
smoky aroma of food
made
the nostrils swell
with
pride
