once upon a time
the Flat Iron provided
the very best view…
falling behind my family
to take more photos
flat iron building…
step by step to the side
it flattens

creating a space
in himself
that can’t be filled
– his lengthy ritual
seaside walks
the way
water comes and goes
on the beach

taking off my clothes
my heart
closer…
the trees
behind the burned out
watering hole

wanting my old life
when I wanted
my present life
stirring the soup she made
as a cold rain falls outside
asked to pose
with an old Pontiac
her stoic look…

wind outside the mall
and as I wait
with my eyes closed
a killdeer calls
from another life
pausing…
in the puddle
the pig barn

my youth spent
gathering strength and solace
of friends near and far-
these short years later
losing them one by one
in the world
of lost and found
always waiting…
