    UNDERSTANDING

    “Do you understand me” I say
    I look him in the eye
    The boy is mad at mama
    “I understand”
    “Will you say you’re sorry?”
    He looks into me and breathes deep:
    “My bunny wants to say goodbye to mama.

    And I wonder:
    what does the bunny have in store for me?

    Interesting...

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
