A Few Things Poem by RIC BASTASA

A Few Things



mother's black and white picture
on the wall,

father's leather belt kept
in an old cabinet now dusty

too dusty memories
about a family long splintered by time

about pain
about happiness suppressed
about its ability to survive despite the odds

siblings come to a reunion party
wanting to remember more names
