8 ! Baptism at Dusk Scrape of a prayer from behind the sun, and the shadows have crept away to quivering grasses, the crickets and owls opened shop, and you, you fool, you’re in the middle of a field stuck to the edge of a miracle— miracle snagged on twilight’s peace and longing. Overhead first star. Within tumultuous pageant. Here you’ll take a new name and one will be given and all strikes at love will abound. !"#$%#&'()#$*$+,$*$-.&#$/001! !
! Memories of Grandfather An older bridge in quieter times. April’s gray ice snagging then crashing in the falling of waters. Grandfather’s pale pink flesh in a pale yellow shirt smelling of cigars and cologne, sweat and aging. He takes you by the hand over ill-spaced planks pulling you, terrified, along, because the river’s white snarl will suck you under if you look too long and hard. An older man in quieter times crossing a bridge with his grandson. An undying Sunday afternoon soothing the crush of the milltown. <strong>The</strong> workers now drinkers ringing the heavy oak tables of the Franco-Belgian Club, and among the beer, cards, smoke, and laughter a six year-old boy sipping cream soda with a straw, thinking happily to himself— “so this is what old men do.” ! !"#$%#&'()#$*$+,$*$-.&#$/001! 9
