bus trip—
a letter from home
in my hip pocket Michael
I scoot over for his books
packed train Alegria
transferring
in the Frankfurt airport
a stale aura of war Vicki
queuing at the quay
for the late-night ferry Jessica
jumble ice—
too warm for the dogs
on the Yukon Quest kjmunro
walking tree shadows
the last block home Jacquie
