The sadness heavy
hanging down on her
a lead cloak
draped over her frame
Hope turned to sadness
weighing her down
her feet barely touching
yet anchored to the ground

and poem: When Hope Died

talking to Shyanne’s friend
sitting on the swings, but not swinging
at the bus stop
on the death of a few-days-old kitten, Hope,
smothered by its mother this morning
