Today's poem

luck to jenny (take one)

jenny says i've become mean since my return from summer vacation and i believe her. then again, she's the first to agree that being nice is meaningless, almost fake. "why do i have to be nice?" i remember her saying when tina thought she didn't like her. aw, i miss tina. today i saw a girl that looked like her, and i was overwhelmed with a desire to run up to her and ask her if her hair was heavy.

jenny's reading right now. the book has a very long title. she read me a line that illustrated how fully well her life is scripted in these books. i paused and asked her how she finds these books. she said, hmmm?

i think they come to her like fireflies. or she to them. anyway, i've never seen it work so beautifully. for a moment i thought she was her dad sitting there with her legs stretched reading. mainly becuase her profile is much like his, and because she's sick and when she caughs she sounds like a man, but partially because i remember her dad sitting to water flowers by the pool.
