Boston and Taipei pour in together.
It takes a beltway
to shock him awake
from Easter green kitchen walks
out back to smoke alone.
Taipei and Boston and Death
are separated by a tunnel.
With grandpa's ashes
and smoke in my lap,
I'm not afraid to enter,
not for myself,
but that grandpa doesn't scatter
when the pressures shift
from green to cabinet brass.
