1. the grease from the hamburgers
starts a fire on the grill
smoke billows out
disturbing a previously impervious
colony of wasps
2. a smartphone next to the ballerina-slippered left foot
Of the tinier girl
plays a song about eating disorder
as the taller girl bemoans
I am scared. This is higher than you went
In the staircase of the rock wall
The tiny child raises her hands
Just hold on tight and come down
One foot at a time
And if you fall
…I will catch you
