Oedipus and Electra Admit It

Tanya Rucosky Noakes

...my secret, so I have kept it...
my husband’
s too like my father
(and he shouldn’
t bear repeating)
but then this secret slipped
from the other side of our bed,
half asleep he has told me
he loves when I pull blankets
up over him in the night
to keep him from getting cold.
we are both orphan adults—
my proud heart needs a father,
big and warm to feel safe near,
and rough-bear wants a momma
to love him and tuck him into bed.
