it's more of a question of care continuity

I think my self could stand to get that memo.

That, or to care less. Either would be better than in-between.

I could not tell I had jumped off that bus,
that bus in motion, with my child in my arms,
because I did not know it. I believed my own story:
I had fallen, or the bus had started up
when I had one foot in the air.

I would not remember the tightening of my jaw,
the irk that I’d missed my stop, the step out
into the air, the clear child
gazing about her in the air as I plunged
to one knee on the street, scraped it, twisted it,
the bus skidding to a stop, the driver
jumping out, my daughter laughing
Do it again.

I have never done it
again, I have been very careful.
I have kept an eye on that nice young mother
who lightly leapt
off the moving vehicle
onto the stopped street, her life
in her hands, her life’s life in her hands.

i was in new jersey earlier this week for less than a day i had to leave at 4am on thursday morning because of a fright

i think the only things that are important to me, some times: if i am able to feel 'chills,' to chill, and to worry and not-worry

i need to go to the dentist
