I know someone's mother
Got shot in the chest
Off first street by the bridge
Under which fishermen drink
After they retire

As she was crawling away
Two more in the back of her head
The first bullet rattled
Between her vertebrae

The second bullet
Nearly lost in the red mist
Tore over her left ear
Worming a bloody rivulet

In nearly the same spot
Right where the hairline starts
Like the creek where I
Got hit with a deer tick

Like fell trees over open bone
A Braid of sutures damning the flow

My father fixing it
Sinking a cigarette
Pulling a cherry stem
Out the back of my neck

I remember feeling
Back for the tick head
And feeling dumbly the wet
Gristle of skin
