Papi,
This poem is from
my manuscript in progress.
Writing about you
is the only way your
Selfish Daughter
knows how to
keep you close
and let you go all at once.
This is how I open
my balled fists,
ease them into prayer
before pressing pen to paper.
This is how you
rise and fall
at my chest.
This is MAGIC
&
