in their baskets, beckon yellow jackets

that duly thrum the stamen of four

for a season of pickling, of blanching in Ball jars."

sodden linen: the tear-stained white sheet
of our child’s ghost costume, unworn.
This year, there will be no tricks or treats."

teeth grinding

in a blender, a callus

 

peeled back, a blister

needing cleaned.

We showered

 

together

for the first time

(clothed)."
