...All that Remains




Sept 13, 1957

Four plastic wheels
a metronome for things to come
casters echoing on stained grouted tile.

Out on the terrace
children’s rainbow clothed clown
balloons whipping, tokes Marlboro Lights.

I’m struck with thought
last time I saw you forty years ago
and now lazy cancer loiters within me;

my atonement for leaving our home.
