Coming Back
David C. Kopaska-Merkel
I
do
believe
in new life
your soul, if you will
reborn: a new body, maybe
human, or a tree
a spider
collie
so
this
blooming
roseate
weed has a you-ness
in my best pot in the window
we speak constantly
well, I do
just like
when
you
wore a
woman's flesh
my next hated you
I found you in the street—crispy
knew she had to go
which of you
will I
find
next?
