This poem slays me. I wish I wrote it. Thank you Zachary, and ONLY POEMS also for curating this and it being a "long poem." Maybe I'll sleep with this poem under my pillow. Maybe one day in my own dream my father will say "ok," and reach to kiss me. I'll never forget this poem. To me, it's a "must read."
amazing.
Wow - an incredible and haunting piece. 💔
Thank you all for your kind comments. ❤️❤️❤️
