Last weekend at Tilden Park

 

 

You have my right femur

tucked away inside a wooden chest

at the foot of your bed

 

wrapped in an old quilt

with a broken clavicle

and a false rib

 

Summer is ending

and I am afraid

 

you will lay my bones on the lawn

one warm Sunday morning

next to old spoons

board games and a blue vase

 

You are extraordinary

and you cannot fix me

 

But your friend

has my spleen in a jar

hidden in the back of her piano

 

and every evening we sing

sad Irish songs
