knute
i
can't
help
but
wonder
why
i've
had
these
hours
after
a
wide
-eyed
3
:33
awakening
to
observe
your
family
like
some
oblivious
documentarian
watching
the
ground
beneath
your
solid
feet
shake
.
your
17
year
-old
autistic
son
is
now
a
toddler
in
your
wife's
arms
and
all
of
you
are
fresh
as
if
life
has
washed
you
clean
from
faith
,
but
your
pink
cheeks
reveal
something
hidden
slowly
making
its
unwilling
way
to
the
surface
like
the
imminence
of
death
,
a
knowledge
no
one
wants
to
know
and
that's
why
people
believe
,
i'm
thinking
.
