parenting
raze i found them in the dirt. ribbons of loose leaf paper cut away from the bone. both folded in half. crosswise.

these were the questions someone didn't care enough to keep.

"biggest fear with parenting?"

"what do you want your kids to remember about you?"

i carried them home with me like two small children, surprised the wind hadn't whipped them somewhere beyond my reach.
