St. John Francis Regis (patron of lacemakers and New York City)


take that slender hand

and pull. the girl comes

tumbling back into the fold.


her lips are lacework.


through the arches of this

great bridge, she returns

from that sprawling borough.


stand at the tip of this island

and welcome her home.


her eyes unravel at the seams.
