And

 And


I’m the youngest of seven, the oldest of one,

a paradox past understanding …

And … the oldest of five that I wed on the run

while fleeing the Market Street landing.


I’m naked, inside, as the eyes of a clown

and I cannot believe that I've told you …

but such as this can’t keep the tongue in me down

my ignorance needs to enfold you.
