Game 56

​CHI 109               WAS 104

I have been teaching
Four years now.

That whole time
We worked to conceive.

And that whole time
I called my students
My kids.

Now I have a daughter.

How does love work?

Can we run out?

I remember when my dad died.

That first breath
A question.

An untested hypothesis.

I had never
Had to breathe
Alone.
