ONE FIREFLY. TWO. TWO LITTLE lights in the sky above the rectangle window that they sliced into the roof before, when my mom lay here, in this bed, waiting for a miracle. You have to see the sky to hope. The sky, because it is always new, always promising a future, because it’s the only way I can forget, sometimes, the itch of the ivy in the itch of the plaster over every broken bone, the nexts of my story.

Tomorrow is day five.

Tomorrow, and the blue moon is past us now, and I’m counting.

You’re counting, I can see it, too.

I wish to be outside. I wish.

Tragedy is fast and it’s so slow.

Your shoes scuff the stairs on the way down.
