As a child,
on occasion
I took to catching smoke in jars
wondering at the weak, slow ghosts
behind the thick glass .
After a few days,
they would fade
without a sigh
and leaving a shadow of soot.

“If I knew that today would be the last time I’d see you, I would hug you tight and pray the Lord be the keeper of your soul. If I knew that this would be the last time you pass through this door, I’d embrace you, kiss you, and call you back for one more. If I knew that this would be the last time I would hear your voice, I’d take hold of each word to be able to hear it over and over again....

Full fathom five thy father lies; Of his bones are coral made; Those are pearls that were his eyes; Nothing of him that doth fade, But doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange.

A day that is hot
as the breath of somebody you do not love
all over your body and face
