There are things a child must bear
a bloody nose
a rainy afternoon
some stinky jellybeans
whatever’s under the bed
the girl from down the street
who said she’s way too cool to care
such things eventually settle
a sleepless night
the grown-up talk
an endless walk
and the persistent sting of nettle
nothing quite stays there
as that one moment on stage
and the empty chair
