Activity Room
John Bargowski
My mother wants nothing to do with the puzzle
two other residents,
whose wheelchairs have been rolled up
to a folding card table,
are trying to put together --
a west-side shot of the New York skyline
broken up into a thousand pieces,
the stubborn morning smog
she could see from the apartment
she had to give up Photoshopped out,
the OT insisting Mom join in the fun,
taking my mother's stroke-locked hand
and guiding it to
a corner piece that's an easy fit,
Mom's head craning over
she swam in as a girl
before her fingers begin to shovel
through half-built walls, skyscraping towers,
pushing aside everything
that's been pieced back together
into a hole she's found
in the skyline.
