Poems
A Small Nurture
for Peter Harris and Lisa Rosen
The dog died
And I have no children.
I bring cookies to the seminar
And garner the scorn of female colleagues--
Do you think the guys do this?
I don't know
But what I really mean
Is I don't care what the guys do
Or don't.
I have inconvenient responses
To what life gives me or withholds.
My students,
Sometime irritants,
Easily become my children
And each May's loss
A keen, wailful good-bye.
There is a disease
Where the body becomes
Hyper-aware of its own processes,
And in this heightened state
Every heart-beat, and pulse, and nerve
Fractures the balance of sanity.
I used to think I could feel
Every birth and death and fall
Of every body.
Overcome, I would fixate on one moment:
Right now there is a woman dying in India
A child falling
Another woman giving painful birth
A man being shot
Another whose heart has stopped . . .
And this would go on
And on
Until I crawled outside myself.
Does every body do this?
