The day was better. and i remembered that daughter said things about the Three Day Rule. Three Days and somehow, everything is ok. is the New Normal. so, today was day One. and there was a kind of acceptance.

Sounds. and as they came, to stand close and lean in, i found self singing into the bones of their skulls. and they would stand. so still. with my singing going into their skulls. sometimes their necks, too. my mouth, not really pressing, but close to pressing against them.
