miracles

 

those out-of–control

feelings like you

 

in bones

that will be erased

 

when my body blues

and my wife incinerates me

 

and my children scatter my ashes

at aquinnah

 

because i was native american

in a past life

 

and a blues harmonica player

in the key of e

 

but really

we are all natives

 

all from jungles

cells from fishtank oceans

 

before we started dividing land

by name and color and walls

 

wondering. wait:

how did i end up here?
