Like When You Wave at a Train / Poems

This may be my most personal book as I wrote this collection of poems as an attempt to definitively and honestly connect in a deep way with Farid my teenage stepson. Ah since you're not my/ natural son you can be my/ supernatural son! No actual genes of mine// swim in your blood your flesh doesn't/ resemble mine though since I've been your/ dad from the time you were two we now have a/ definite// family resemblance leaping over/ genetic fact like some sleek green grasshopper of/ supernatural light.
