The Mind

 

Is
As fragile as
The dream
It dreams
The black voice

Watching Jordan’s Fall

 

…God, I hate November
All the hope I had hoped
Against hope for Jordan.

​

Dad beat Jordan, to
Straighten him out, to show
Jordan, to silence him.

​

My brother lived until the next
Season, onto the next winter,
Very quiet like a fallen leaf.
