Sometimes Cousin Joyce would flip
her long dark hair over her face to block out
her mother's stricken wine-dark stare.
And I'd sneak glances at my dad
to catch, how in profile, he actually looked
the part. When I substituted my thumb
for a moustache, it was uncanny.
And fury rose in his eyes like film-clips
of Nuremberg speeches on The Twentieth Century
narrated by "the Cronkite." After ice cream
warmer than the atmosphere, he'd snatch me
for a long drive through the rubber stench
of eastern Akron till he was calm
enough to chafe out the rest of the visit.
Veteran of World War Two, comparison
with what he'd battled to destroy
doubled the insult. He'd shake his head,
"You know if Hitler had caught her before
she escaped, he would have shot himself sooner."
no likes.
