Judy Kronenfeld
Together
You share my room
three nights in the surgical ward,
sleeping awkwardly
on a foldout chair, as I doze
in my opiate-quieted bed—
the soothing arm’s reach
between us all the sweetness
we can know.
Judy Kronenfeld‘s fifth full-length book of poetry, Groaning and Singing, was published by FutureCycle Press in February, 2022.
