Bringing You Up
... Bringing You UpI take you by the hand and pull youyank like I am ferocious& really meaning it I squeezethe cloth at the back of your shoulderblades into handlesto lift youso you will moveyou willmove ifI have to carry you the whole goddamned way so help meI have a well planned day of definitives:to get to the bank machine streetcar you to daycarethen to work thisI plan thingsto work smoothly& your legs know how to move things up in the worlda small chopper raising fury I catch on my shoulderbawling head first no no nor justicejust one heart muscling in the gutterhow far mine sinks before

structurewell-toned at the Y I am this whollyabdominal characterevolvingWith every repetition this body impresses me tono endhow I carry you one kilometre in the snow without coffeeor chocolatewithout
