Eulogy
(after Joy Katz)
Fast forwarding to (as in joint memory),
seems I'm composed of the notes of
partner's stance as we round Rolena Loops,
fly up Five Mile; the notes of Mom’s green
thumb, hands smoothing blanket (cat jumps in);
the notes of a palm-held goldfinch, as of yet
just right out window--splash of sunglow gold
awaits nest
