a certain sway. From the angle of her neck since dad's tilted the tv
on the mantle, to the arguments.
Some peanut shells broken, crumbs in the grain of the table; my palms spread, shaking the salt off and the question strung between
the chewing, like a nerve. Sometimes I tell her, I can't leave. And she'll slant her head, say, You can. And we
sit there, creaking. Rubber swings.
