Kerri Shying R # 39 Six Years Later

Six years later

Then we were

catching babies in our hands

before they fell

The weekend car to gaol

we took your mother

gravid

atop the centre console

out to Cessnock

she – first checking carefully

for what might be stored

beneath those breasts

set out like sushi

just like being at the meal

six years on

neither of us walking

but look at you

up and about

and getting into everything
