LEILA CHATTI
I DREAMED I FORGOT
I dreamed I forgot you
but to dream you was remembering. I have words for you only, a linguistic fidelity. Cherish and anguish and fool. I look for you, I am finding out if I am brave. Last
I saw you, it was the same disruptive season: robins trilling in the young flush, trees shivering
pink all down the street.
I thought the ache
would ruin me, and maybe it did. Here I am in the beatific after still calling back to you.
