She loves

She loves the way it sounds: absolve

Step back, get a better view:
set free, let go, abandon: add wings
to heaven (or something or someplace
like that)

What would it be like to have
the hisses and ridicule heard
as the twelve-year-old-she evaporate?

The auditory mist would be taken up,
on flying chariots, hazy clouds of glitter
trailing them as love prevails,
finally, in memory, in future – -

She loves the way it sounds: absolve
