HUNGARIAN
PILLOWCASE
haikyou for P
Stamped in memory
Atilla Jozsef
university, for-
get her name, not scent.
One day I will never forget even
if I can't remember. Moon-landing on T.V.
painted in red white and blue, green white
and yellow.
My brother took a snap-shot on a mickey mouse
tin camera like something out of a lucky bag, I blinked
the shutter open/closed in my mind’s eye.
The painting
lives on in peacetime,
A snipers bullet lodged in the frame behind
my sister's head.
Can't get this image out like
the crack in the glass, shattered
for life.
