33. From the river bank

his daughter painted portraits of the people gliding by in their boats.
The weather was hot.
She wore a halter top and shorts.
The paint flowed down her arms
and pooled red at her feet.
The boaters yelled from their boats:
What are you going to do about her?
Encourage her use of color
his daughter’s mother did say.

32. first dates
a.
npo
the man's
head was
apart
from his body
and a hoop
passed
around it
and through
the space
where his
neck should
have been
a magic
trick
called
headless
man
b.
hard cider
from where he
lay on the
kitchen floor
as she knelt
over him
he asked
has the cider
come into
your milk yet
years before
she had tried
to stab him
through his heart
but with a spoon
