THE FILLING IN A SCHOOL SANDWICH



the child i was
is 

filling in a school sandwich

  half eaten

    discarded

but
still
chews
on
his
shirt
collars
  in the photograph slides

i am a giant grown on his shoulder

  host
  to
  his
  museum

and
he'll
nudge
me
on
sunday afternoons 
when
the
world
is
quiet 

  and ask me who i am

or
he'll tap my back
when
i
forget
my
medication
and
  cold sweats drain existence and credibility

  from
    this
      timeline
