every few days my friend from Oregon
stops by to call his little girl--it’s painful,
hurtful, cruel, and precious in a moment
like birth,
he’s a hard son-of-a-bitch works with his hands
drifts from here to there, town to town,
carpenter in this one, painter in the next,
but she’s his tender spot,
his heart and he knows she better off without him,
he just wants to be close,
fuck it, we all want to be close.
