“all the broken hearts in the world still beat / let’s not make it harder than it has to be”

For Poetry Monday:


A Message to You, Margaret Noodin, tr. by the author from Anishinaabemowin (Ojibwe)

I know there are different worlds
because our ancestors sent them messages
because lost lovers now live in them
because you just said that right now.
Are you the carved shoreline
and I the sweet water sea
or am I the shifting wind
you cannot perceive?
