Matrix Poem by Dónall Dempsey

Matrix

Rating: 2.3


She names her
new baby girl

Keanu.

“As in the actor? ”
I question.

“Keanu means
COOL BREEZE
OVER THE MOUNTAIN
in Hawaiian.”
I am informed.

Little baby
looks like him

acts like him
(when he’s acting)

but is so
much her self

she couldn’t be
anyone else.

I hold her
in my arms

this hot summer day

she a cool breeze
over the mountain.
