mama said grandma
always chuckled
when they
stopped
to take photos here, in
an unremarkable corner
of the neighborhood
in which she has lived
for more than half
a century –
as if a single lotus
flower in a neighbor’s
front yard had no
reason to be elevated
to a photoshoot. perhaps
we no longer recognize
any other way
.
