My hands
Stripped of everything
I leave
I come back
Murmurs of voices
Fear inside me 
Bad, very bad
My mistake
Suddenly I hope
After all

after a moment
he thought you listen
Do You?
I
Never

Like birds beating their wings 
Thoughts tumble in my mind
A sea of watching faces
White tablecloths
Glinting crystal glasses
This is a dream.

its wonderful,

Most of the colors

are grey.
Any brightness in the room
comes from us
our laughter.]]> 2017-02-02 18:57:32 UTC https://padlet.com/kimdoele/o3tklqaxzz9j/wish/151258853 https://padlet.com/kimdoele/o3tklqaxzz9j/wish/151259608 I don't picture
 the sun dazzling
 in our yard
 I will think of
 when I ride the air train
 I want to tell my mother 
I
 have
 a message 
we're sorry 
Cassia 
have a good night 
a beep sounds 
the foil ware container 
trundlilng along 
my dinner steams as I open it up
 I 
burn 
my mouth 
but that's all right]]> 2017-02-02 18:59:40 UTC https://padlet.com/kimdoele/o3tklqaxzz9j/wish/151259608 https://padlet.com/kimdoele/o3tklqaxzz9j/wish/151301269 You can write your own poems
Who would read them?
I would.
I think
of writing out his story.
"Thank you," I say.
"For teaching me how to write."
For saving my
Poem.

Doesn't work
He's pale and unhappy
I follow and watch him
I give up any hope
He stands
Looks tired
I recognize his face full of misery
I feel awful
I wish...

Time live better than
All my parents
Exclaiming over how wonderful we walk
I can't believe it, me, my match Xander 
I wasn't nervous, I knew too, I was. 
A brief awkwardness, Xander, me a moment
In touching are full

the people here
don't break them
are small things,
not large,
infractions,
my fingers tighten
I glance in the direction
of the poems
are allowed we,
catch a glimpse]]> 2017-02-03 12:07:45 UTC https://padlet.com/kimdoele/o3tklqaxzz9j/wish/151405107 https://padlet.com/kimdoele/o3tklqaxzz9j/wish/152093039 His head
His pack
He walks away safely
Sighs

I wont be able to keep them forever,
everyone talking about something
a line from the poem comes to my mind,
I tilt my head back and look at the sun
it is strong against the black

The beginning of the end. 
The screen flashes 
the face of a boy
He smiles
He brings a small silver box to Lea
She looks at the box longingly
The information will be used to hold the rings for the contract
The screen flashes
a boy and a girl, 
smiling at each other
The screen goes back 
to this picture
It's so complicated and I am again
