Pamela A Babusci: Text
chrysanthemum moonÂ
i peel off another layerÂ
of sorrowÂ
that nobodyÂ
will notice
not a single starÂ
out of placeÂ
in the Milky WayÂ
the garden gateÂ
left ajar all night
bringing a pot of coffeeÂ
& cigarettesÂ
to my mother’s graveÂ
we have never spokenÂ
so honestly
losing herselfÂ
within these stark white wallsÂ
disappearingÂ
unnoticedÂ
a shell of a woman
giving backÂ
the ringÂ
taking backÂ
my heartÂ
april rain
