DRESSING FOR A TRIP


Brenda you were so pretty
and my sister Alison's friend
for a long time in school
I know she didn't see
the black you lived in

One summer day
you put on your snowmobile suit
put on your headphones
attached to your pocket radio
took your pillow
and laid down on the train tracks

I still can't believe it really
when I think about how black your black
must have been

and one day
on the garage steps
while sharing a smoke
with Alison
we talked about her dying soon
and she told me how afraid she was
that there would be no one there
that she knew

and I said don't be scared on that one Alison
of course there are people there waiting for you
Nanny and Grandad
and Brenda too
