and another thing the realtor says
is Listen, kids, I’ve been around the block
for a cool decade. Think I’m bullshitting
you? I practically invented Selfie-
with-Misspelled-Name-on-Starbucks-Cup
and our eyes flit to the desk where a marble
paperweight in the shape of an inukshuk
throws shade across his nameplate
You and I, we’ve always been suckers
for stacked rocks and authority figures
with sun-damaged hair, so we shrink back
and whisper We don’t know where
we belong dropping hands below the city’s
sight to make fishhooks of our pinkies
He laughs You think someone gave me
a trout? I had to learn to and makes a casting motion,
silver watch leaping at his wrist and we know
this is where home is, shy of the surface, hooked
always and thrashing beneath.
