When you hear me wish upon you, what do you see?
What have you seen before?
Did you see me cry?
Beg and plead?
When I screamed at the top of my lungs,
did you hear me?
Beautiful star in the sky
Do you ever wonder why your light still shines?
You've been gone for millions of years
and for millions of years you've heard our cries
our prayers
our screams
Yet somehow, by some divine miracle
you fly across the sky and give us
one wish.
You give us hope.
Cuando me oyes pedir un deseo, ¿qué ves?
¿Qué has visto antes?
Me viste llorar
¿Suplicar y suplicar?
Cuando grité a todo pulmón
¿me has oído?
Hermosa estrella en el cielo
¿Alguna vez te preguntaste por qué tu luz todavía brilla?
Te has ido por millones de años
y durante millones de años has escuchado nuestros gritos
nuestras oraciones
nuestros gritos
Sin embargo, de alguna manera, por algún milagro divino
vuelas por el cielo y nos das
un deseo.
Nos das esperanza.

Penumbra Complete
Echoes Chase Languorous Illuminations with a most Pluralistic wave Shining face to face of Each * Acrostic poems are almost as much enjoyment as observing the two disks barely touching but give an unearthly tone to the daylight.

Reaching Out
I promise her. I'd do anything for her. She's my mom. Even as Lanie and Deanna are flying home, Mom is scrappy fighting dying. She lays too still in that too-big bed with all the toasty white hospital blankets, in the south tower, at the broad end of a long slow-turning corner that delivers me again to her private room with the view she can't see through, with the beeping that tells us nothing new, and all these ice chips she can't swallow, and a flood of well-intentioned nurses who cannot do a damned thing all the same.
