with a backpack
bigger than he is
stands in line
behind the red rope
his tears follow me
through the exit door
to the car parked
in the no parking zone,
on my own cheeks
I taste them

not just the light
though that, too, how it bloomed
across the green lawn
but also her waving hands
so empty, so full of light
