Without A Doubt

Without a doubt,
their tiny bodies were
always there,

but when a flap
of wings interrupted
the breakfast conversation,

you all looked at me in silence.

The inalterable order
that was guaranteeing night
followed day

was escaping, like a sharp wasp's nest
of words,
in our voices.
