I left your father's first book of poems
over the fridge in the house
Diego grew up in
Couldn't bear to look at what you had written down
in those blank pages books tend to have
right at the start
I used to think
they were meant for lovers,
proud fathers and the like
never thought they could be of use
for those of us who have learned
to swim in the light
But I can hear you singing "Jackson"
walking around your old apartment
opening and closing the doors
your husband had kicked to splinters
yes, I can hear you singing "Jackson"
