A cream cheese sandwich
for Jo, two popsicles for Em--
first red (strawberry), then yellow (banana).
JO JO STANDS ALONE FOR AT LEAST TWENTY SECONDS
Holding a thin book light,
she doesn't even think it.
Alone, on two feet,
Just like the rest of us.
Cheektowaga, a suburb of Buffalo, NY. Supposedly the word is Iroquois for "land of the crabapple trees."
