Elegy at 6.6137 N, 3.3553 E

I met my father's eyes for the first time

when she passed

I wanted a language to say goodbye

I never wanted his eyes.

Towels

Without knowing it, you’ve agreed

that the fate of my life depends

on our laundry.

Trans-substantiation

What is this lifeblood if not a river?

I enter my body as exit strategy.

I come from a long line of fathers

without fathers. I’ve said too much.

Migraine with Aura

I must have seemed rude,

mind’s eye collapsing, each

passing friend an insurmountable.

Bronco

It was worth it wails the singer in an oversized

white suit; her blonde head sways on stage

and I don’t doubt her.

Starting from Paumanok

After the loss of friends, night after night at the bedside of a dying body; after that, when I had stayed safe, meaning aloof, in order not to die, I fled to Queens, where I stayed safe, meaning remote, in order to be nobody’s boyfriend.
