(for TOO)
the frozen pond
has a memory
of the diving frog
(for HID)
it's on the tip of my tongue
and extends from there as if
soon everything will be forgotten
(for GIG)

recognizes her girl's laugh among the
bundled up happy shouting
(for BUD)
I was about 5 when I could see Atlas
holding the world on his shoulders we
both floated through outer space
