Those we tell (Day 1331; September 11, 2020)



That sky   blue as blue   

belonged to everyone   same as 

when nothing was the same


after   like daggers   

we told those we tell    our stories  

at odds with forgetting


& there   & there it was   

before   when we were ever changed   

over   & over again   


you see   now began then   

but that day does not belong to us   

does it   


& we looked   looked away

then could not stop   seeing people 

like birds   planes 


like snow   eyes closed  

we remember   not all belong to us

we tell them anyway
