to write poetry with or to your lover

it seeps into your lungs like warm cider, it seems to warm your insides entirely. always show those you love the entirety of your compassion and kindness. they exist in the little words and the little objects. they exist within the creases of your palm, they reflect back into you

NINE STORIES BY JD SALINGER

Each short story is so unique, purposeful, and well written. What I love and appreciate about the short story format are that the characters and setting need to be established pretty quickly. In these 9 stories, JD does that exquisitely while evoking heartbreak and wonder. my favourites from the collection are ‘For Esme’ and ’Teddy’

a family member recently passed and I found myself perusing through his facebook profile and looking at photos of him. I thought about how some of his features specifically show up on my own face - from the way my eyebrows are arched to the bow of my lips. Then I saw his funny little posts about the NBA. and I recall all the times I would have to watch these games while he babysat my sister and I. Years down the road, I formed my own appreciation for the sport and understood it mainly because of him. all that to say, even when the people we love are gone, it’s nice to know that little pieces of them are scattered amongst the lives they’ve touched.
