Coming Home from the Coal Mines
Jessup, PA 1926


jennifer pierson



over and over again
the water surged
stone-grey and stark white
on that bleak night
rushing over the bridge
cracking it
his bowed legs
against the cold rain
buckling under suddenly
for force pushing
him onto the water
never
letting him know
he would be
my grandfather
