cursing in Italian: \u201cah bah fah<\/em>\u2026\u201d
and never finishing the phrase,
because it won\u2019t count that way,
like a cockatoo, stopping it’s song short

when she ran behind the ice truck
down her street in Brooklyn,
with kids from the neighborhood,
to hustle the driver for a sliver.

flapper dress, declining
an invitation to join

between two trains,
traveling in opposite directions,
between two passengers
remaining on the caboose
as they bid farewell,
until both disappear
into the horizon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
