Unveiling

Unveiling I wanted to stay with you after I put the stone on your monument, but I was expected to leave with my dad, and it would have shocked everyone there if I had said, "I'll take buses and trains back, so go without me." So I looked all around and visited you through each year that you were with me and added all the years to the words on the monument, with the sentence, present in supposedly non-authentic Jewish texts: "We'll meet again." Not goodbye, then, but good new life and years. Come when you're ready.
