- At Azalea Gardens

Like tonight at the library, passing the shelf
with the Large Print mysteries, living once again
how I took you books at Azalea Gardens,
how it spun steadily downhill the year you lived there:
first your grand plans for what they called the Faulkner apartment
and your worries, would the residents like you
even if you rented the most expensive.

Then there is just the brute sledgehammer blow of missing you.Like tonight at the library, passing the shelf
with the Large Print mysteries, living once again
how I took you books at Azalea Gardens,
how it spun steadily downhill the year you lived there:
first your grand plans for what they called the Faulkner apartment
and your worries, would the residents like you
even if you rented the most expensive.

where pesticides sensitized his skin
those years of his childhood, playing
in Delta cotton fields. A charred,
hand-sized lozenge marks the tender crease
inside his elbow. Alex holds up her chart
that shows the sickness and death
in her mother’s family, from cancer
in Cancer Alley. She has made red circles
for “fought,” green crosses for “died,”
she has put stars around her name,
my pretty dark-haired student.
