The mailman dropped a letter in our box
for Mrs. Tovia Durkan who has not lived
at our address for forty four years
and is now buried in a small cemetery
surrounded by a black wrought
iron fence and glorious mums,
we are now the caretakers of
a letter sent to a Jewish widow
leaving us to feel responsible
to attend the Bat Mitzvah of
12-year-old Sophie Bravermann;
do we bring a gift?
