from the kitchen
i navigate
D stairs
to the bathroom,
and L more
from there
to my room
once upon a time
i was afraid of
falling - isn't that
every pregnant
woman's worst
nightmare?
but then i became
excited so i stopped
just counting stairs,
i wanted to
teach you

brother has already
borrowed my copy

i am in the kitchen
studying o-chem
making muffins.
my despondency
leaks into the batter
out of the D-glucose
onto the blender and
under my tongue;
i taste the swirls of
pain the absence of
her laugh, her
smile, the absence of
her angel eyes
and am startled when

gouge me with a
turret and
clean out my
pores,
scatter my
bones so that
vultures can

holding my cup out under
rivers tumbling
cascading heavily
threatening
to drown
but my cup
remains empty i
cannot be cleansed
and the guilt remains
tattooed on my skin

have brushed your
hair and kissed your
cheeks

perfect, precious

have blinded me when
you came to me
i miss you my
love,
my little girl.
you should have been born
today it
kills me to live
without you
i wish i could
have seen you
in the dressing room
told you how beautiful
