    I Wish I Could Laugh

    I saw the therapist
    who thought I was fantasising, smiling
    on the street passing me. She did not know
    I was fantasising

    then—seeing
    not predicting her future
    smile
    leaving; her past

    catching up
    which doesn’t
    make
    me

    smi-
    It does a little bit.

    The line breaks and hanging line indents may be incorrectly formatted because I cannot be bothered to fiddle with the HTML. View the correct formatting in the full collection Juveni… Doesn’t Matter (The Grey-Salmon Book) (and subscribe at the top of the page).
