Sue Radziwon
I started writing
because of
Sue Radziwon
I couldn’t say
I loved the way
your whole body laughed
collapsing to the floor
shrouding your face
in chestnut hair
I started writing
because of
Sue Radziwon
I didn’t know
how to say sorry —
losing your dad
so young
I started writing
because of
Sue Radziwon
to find a voice
a place, a purpose
No.
I started writing
because
it was the best
I could do
