after Eileen O’Toole
| tiger |
while
cleaning bloody paws |
| |
|
| children |
when not interrupted |
| |
|
| lovers |
after, in repose |
| |
|
| baby |
at the breast, when milk is ready, reliable, warm |
| |
|
| astronaut |
before anyone says a word |
| |
|
| barnacle |
upon successful clinging |
| |
|
| teacher |
later, when she understands the import |
| |
|
| heart |
between difficult questions |
| |
|
| fist |
no. never a fist. |
