(mi familia)

we all huddle in front of
the fireplace
mom in the middle
our son on one side
our mixed-breed other one
on the other
(half-rhodesian
half german shepherd
he isn't sure
if he belongs hunting
gazelle
on the veldt
or busting up
meth labs
with the k-9 unit
in darkest suburban
'burque)
but we're not confused
in the least
when it comes to our place
in it all -
we were made to be here
at this moment
together
no magic eight balls
to tell us our future
but none needed either -
secure in our insecurity
you made for me
me for you
(et cetera et
cetera)
us four forever companeros
de la
vida
