• W2016042547 abstract "Black Sludge at the edge of the field, still water, slat fence and its rickrack shadow. Trowel tongue. Tulip rooted in black, cricket soaked in it. Mask of the cedar waxwing. Snipe's eye, fly's face. A nudge does it, if you're young enough. My jaw dropped and black leapt in, black spleen, black brain, black car pulling out of the driveway, turning at the top of the hill, then noon, black in its blue suit. Tattletale I heard the world turn its ear toward me so I said it. My brother vanished. My mother frowned, stopped the faucet, and toweled her hands, and sweetness drained from the milk as it stood in my glass. The apple on my plate halved itself to bare its white heart. Suddenly, I had nothing [End Page 38] to say, stupid in my body, hands in my lap, feet snug in red sneakers - dumb proud double knots - my mind a sky with a fleck of black in it flapping in place. Third Grade Our hands are folded before us on our desks. Our hearts are bleached clean by contrition. Sister Marie is standing in back of us. Her hair is hidden. Our lunch pails are in the cloakroom. Our coats on hooks. The alphabet is perfect. It smirks above the blackboard. God is perfect. Our pictures of Him are tacked to the wall. Bill is in his body, pale and gangly. Al is in his freckled body. Delores is in her red-haired body. Phil, Kelly, Nate, Erin in her thin, tall body. Jim, Sister Marie. My body is in a white shirt, a little ink-blot on the pocket. And outside: rain, iron, and silence. [End Page 39] Billet-Doux II Her favorite saint is Crispin, cobbler's patron, docile slogger through Gaulish mud - no foppish apostle for her: no plump pope or wonder worker, only a meek believer in a decent pair of shoes who slew no king in the name of faith but left behind a name that fits exquisitely within the mouth of a king who wants to rouse his troops to battle - men whose boots, wrapped in rags and string so late in a long campaign, could use some mending. For her, I'd be their cobbler, even a convert to their cause: I'd draw the sword and twist it to the hilt in a stranger's guts. Alas, that battle is centuries done, and I have trouble enough keeping my sneakers laced, my suede shoes safe from the rain, or I would make her believe I'd been there, one of those riled and ready men - because I asked her which saint she favored and she paused and thought and I watched her touch a finger to her lip instinctively [End Page 40] then consummate the motion, tucking a strand of dangling hair behind her ear, and she said Crispin." @default.
