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

beyond this life
that one old friend
I bump into over and over
promising that we’ll get together
again, someday
that line
between reality
and dream

at the old parking lot
the sparrows bathe
in a big puddle
sometimes I’m so happy
just to be here as witness
breaking
the reflection stillness
rain drops

wondering if this is what
my parents felt,
in their own time
seeing a better past slip
ever further behind
the water
in the tree, the water
in me…
