mixing fact and fiction,
stirring tears in tea
going back, I dream of
potential lives
various definitions of
normalcy:
a radio playing a
midnight love poem-
music to replace
shrieks,
stories about dancing bunnies
instead of departures
for a child's memory
a piece of orange
melting in my mouth
abstracts beget less blossom in using the
right verb
even the church's bell isn't shy from chiming
at mid-day
I count family members and pray in silence
use verbs like reduce, to tie my blessings
together
that I have language,
that I breath,
that I have stories
but I know nothing is normal
and I know the verb
return
is a synonym for stay.
