		<description><![CDATA[My son has grown
And is now asking questions
About Bosnia
He wants to know who he is
And what the country he was born in
Was really like
During the time of war
Above all
He wants to know why
Serbs, Croats, and Muslims
Started shooting at each other
He is reading Zlata&#8217;s Diaries
And is determined to write about Bosnian war
For his History Day project

		<description><![CDATA[You know the day is coming
When you will have to go to these events
Because your son is a high school junior
And he is talking about college more frequently
Than in the past
So you go one evening
To a MEFA presentation
You are given a brochure and a free pen
You are so sleepy through the first half
That second half [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You drive often by that self-serve storage area
In Gray Maine
Nothing unusual you think
You’ve seen those long rows of warehouse-like buildings
In every corner of the country
Yet this one reminds you of the bleak buildings of
Auschwitz
You drive further up on Route 26
And see little houses tucked into white shawls of snow
A family gathered around a fireplace
Velvety smoke [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There she stands on the Bus 73
Wishfully looking at an empty seat
And wondering if she will be able
To squeeze herself in
Between people on the adjacent seats
Who have spilled over
Onto the territory that by now
Should have been hers
There&#8217;s an aura of sadness around her
You can&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s because of her big body
She will quickly tell [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been trying to buy a house for many years
And something would always happen
Last minute
Like that time when I put money down
On an A-Frame in Bethel Maine
The day when quadruple murder occurred
A few miles away
For the first time in more than two hundred years
Something like this occurred in
The quiet town of Bethel
This was not my [...]]]></description>
