“Weekend Wildlife by Stewart Stafford
Praying mantis tapped out code,
On waste ground down the road,
Legs, wings and antennae spread,
A walrus mugged a pensioner in bed.
A chameleon joined in the mêlée,
Effortlessly cool, a saurian Pelé,
Mimicking every backdrop around,
Eyeballs akimbo, tongue on ground.
Then a herd of Ibex from Iberia,
A yak stampede from frigid Siberia,
Bomber squadrons of high Cockatoos,
As the rest liberated the nearest zoos.

I picture pregnancy loss as a primordial river rushing through me; it carries forces so big, they eclipse my imagination. It runs through my femoral artery and vena cava, through my spleen, my brain, and the chambers of my heart. At first, this force is strong like rapids, flooding everything. With time it slows, but it never goes away. It rearranges my cells like stones in a riverbed. It never stops running, even after I can no longer see it or feel it.”

He didn't mind how he looked to other people, because the nursery magic had made him Real, and when you are Real shabbiness doesn't matter.”

“Weeks turned into months and a year passed, but I didn’t miss my parents. I missed the memory of them. I assumed that part of my life was over. I didn’t understand that I was required to have an attachment to them, to these people I barely knew. Rather, it was my understanding that I was supposed to switch my attachment to my foster parents. So I acted on that notion and no one corrected me, so I assumed that what I was doing was good and healthy.”
