Lustro

Dedicated to Edwina (Irvine) Michon who is not forgotten.



“Znalazłam Cię. . . “ I tease.
(I found you)

“Wiem, że” She quirps back.
(I know {you})

Lustro (the mirror)

In the Great Hall
of unwanted
Unloved
Discarded
Throw-aways

Two girls
Laugh, run, giggle
Arm-in-arm
Heavy paddling sound
of bow-legs running

Oblivious
to the negativity
of the mainstream
Message of exclusion

Sunlight
Filters thru
The old windows
From the sky above
