August Sunday Comics
so
many left
unread
and yet still
to
read, I’ve stacked
them
by the cold
stove.
I’m
following
in
his favorite
comic,
keeping up
with
the gag
stuffed
mouth
eyes
wide as half
dollars
the
steam rising like flies
into
the bubble
of
her mud and jumble
thoughts
because
her hero
(I
read ahead
but
don’t tell him.
I’m
saving it
for
our talk
on
Sunday)
is
still
six
issues
away
