Silly Names To Write On Tombstones

The child's aunts.

The boy's aunts

say,

'm in my experience:

Anecdotes , smoke candle.

A train of women's voices

runs through my veins.

each vertebra

a season.

With this letter

drive my ship,

up this winter day,

that

reached with nostalgia, story

to

my friends,

stories do not remember,

but I know by heart. ****
