written on the day before the tenth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina
on the rooftop
a line of black women
frantically
waving their hands ...
a summer dream turns white

forty the age his father died
he mutters
*the Grim Reaper haunts me*
*like my walking shadow*
breaking news
at the first light of spring daw...
