HE SAID, MARIE, MARIE, HOLD ON TIGHT

And when we were children, staying at the archduke's,
My cousin's, he took me out on a sled,
And I was frightened. He said, Marie,
Marie, hold on tight. And down we went.
In the mountains, there you feel free.
I read, much of the night, and go south in the winter.

groundhogs

something i thought about while walking to the inkshop.
it's not yet a poem. it could be one. the writing is getting much less poetic, and much more down-to-earth.

and i like down-to-earth. reminds me of groundhogs snuffling in the snow.

-

In Beijing, you said you swallowed a fishbone.
We flew to the hospital. The doctor peered
into the tunnel. Nothing, he said,
tapping at the walls.

-

That day, the whole class
gathered at your house.
It was a weekend.
Everyone swam in the pool till
the water turned from
blue to brown, and began
to smell like feet.

You opened the filter of the pool.
and poured in the chlorine
till it rose into your head like smoke.

You thought you were dying.
You called your parents.
Bye mom, bye dad.
A ship honking into the sunset.
And then in a choked up
Voice, in between coughs I
Love you.

You didn’t die in the end.
Life was just about to
pounce upon you,
grab you at the neck, and
shake you around, like a newfound bone.
It would not let you go so easily.
