I couldn’t find a bunion poem
in my shelves of many books about getting older
even though I know three people
who have had bunionectomies and one of them
is a poet who did not write any poem
I could find about her bunionectomy
maybe she wrote it but decided
not to put that poem in her book which is
understandable. I have many things but
not bunions so if I decide to write
a bunionectomy poem (I decided this morning
I would try) it would have to be about Anita’s.
