“Home”

by Lara Amin

Time is coming. 

Shipped home, your will 

To play the 

Several realities 

Nonstop 

Surprised us. 

The canyon ominous night 

Fog in the sky got 

Honest 

With god. 

Inside moles, 

Deep, 

Saw the neverending packs of 

Quiet suburban dream. 

I was surprised with love; 

You showed up. 

Thankful, I don’t know. 

Any details. 

But trust me, time 

will 

come.
