It’s the summer I swim myself slim, the last time I will
ever weigh a mere 200.It’s the summer My True Love sends
me the “Amsterdam Letter,” with windmills, and Vermeer and
canals. My True Love will write about an unexpected meeting
at night that ends with morning coffee and fragrant hands and
a new love that, back then,” dared not speak its name.”
It is my first kind of loss that, one day, will become part
of a collection. My pillow will become a bag of onions.
