From the Spring 2013 issue of The Antioch Review

Pre-School Race, Seen Through a Bus Window

Across the street from the Catholic church, five runners
on the empty soccer field:

two boys in white tee shirts neck
and neck

two boys in polos close behind
and one boy

the last boy—
as the sun blooms above the church spire

brightening the field’s green—
skipping
