At the Cop Station
by Uriel Tovarthe fire engine twirled
its lights
as the sleepy cousin bowed his head
and asked where she was.
i directed his disconnected attention
to the babe
being carried through the door.
sleepy--
she lit up the room
and called all by name
as her second wind
took flight
with the spirits in the room.
she swept it
with her blue crayon
and colored in the sky. 09/12/2005 Posted on 09/12/2005
