LOVE SONG
For Elsie Jean & Pau
i never heard my grandmother
say âi love youâ to my grandfather.
my grandfather would sooner say he
loved us ashy brown pawn pieces &
âchildren, your grandma just meanâ
heâd smile with honesty weeping
from his wrinkles.
my grandmother, a brownstone dish
proper & hot water cornbreadâ
paid him no mind. her neck
a swivel swing. cracked his old man
banter, ignored him like
loud sirens serenading oakland
sky on friday.
âi ainât stuttinâ youâ
she waved, kitchen spoon swim
in gravy or collard greens. her hips
swayed along to the rhythm under
her breath. his eyes danced alongâ
she pretended she know
he was checkinâ for her beat.
