by myself
driving by the lake,
the one I once drove by
with my mother,
that last trip out of town
wind ruffles
the surface of the pond
now and then…

I check out both ends
of the Staten Island ferry
and join the majority…
those who look ahead
to where we are going
Staten Island ferry…
the ride over and back
just for the ride…

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
