To all the families of this loss: POEM
______
People I don't know

with a friend who loved the sport
The squealing of sneakers on floorboards
That airborne grace of long- limbs...
go on forever... stopped only
for that photo
His daughter's head, against his shoulder....

For the families of all involved in that terrible helicopter crash.
