Names etched on

the head of a pin.

 

One name spanning

a bridge, another

undergoing a tunnel.

 

A blue name needled

into the skin.

 

Names of citizens,

workers, mothers,

and fathers,

 

The bright-eyed

daughter, the quick son.

 

Alphabet of names in

a green field.

 

Names in the small tracks of birds.

 

Names lifted from a hat

 

Or balanced on

the tip of the tongue.

 

Names wheeled

into the dim warehouse

of memory.

 

So many names, there

is barely room on

the walls of the heart.”
