monthly visitation with the flowers on Park Avenue

tonight I apologize to them for Tattooine 
at the hour of parent-teacher events on the Upper East Side 
I see there’s time for me but for them it’s long decided
when church bells blare everywhere I go 
and smoke from wildfire chokes the shadow child
 I can’t write until I know they're safe 
when the blooms align      I find my mind
and I can look it in the face

All ‘Work in Progress Wednesday’ poems are…my works in progress. As I reach 25, I’m wondering if I should put together a chapbook. Let6 me know if you have ideas.
