The Playground

The Playground

Sitting on a swing
on a dark and rainy morning
  before school
in a coat two sizes
  too big

Kids from every class
run past
they run to get out of the rain
run not to be late
run while they hate

Look!
so weird
sitting on a swing
  in the rain
in a coat that doesn’t
  fit

What matters most
is out of reach
for every kid
who must go
once more
  into the breach
broken, ruptured, torn
 
For every day
that doesn’t fit
on every playground
there lives
a forever after
remembering every face

  that runs past
At last

in you go
your whole life
