8 SHAPIRO
dad’s jaundice complexions cast alike as
in health while he waits for the dead to leave
a liver he won’t take from us living
to distinguish a looping pitch snapping
a syrupy angled slice hundreds of
feet the opposite way to distinguish
thick piled muscle propelling his action
from the frailty of his mortal structure,
skeletal and tendinous connections
unable to compensate for the force
he generates.
MORAL:
We text commemoration for any
hit, lucky or driven, recognizing
a fit, utile body as fallible.
