my arm enters, my hand grasps a rattle
that was laid next to a pewter fire witch,

crooked hat, eyes wide, hands up,
before dust encased the objects
and spiders made their home.

this is what I told the wife God knows how many times.
There are no snakes around here,
I told her, just as there are no angels.

to my apartment and
open the door and the
kids’ faces will pop
with happiness. They’ll
run toward us, ram their
heads into our stomachs,
so eager to be held...

displaced in all our promise
as if the legends don’t continue
and we have not met regret?
