v. the m_n_script

susan
one morning
i woke up on the floor next to the bed—
almost made it

i stared into the decaying dust village underneath
and i spied something curious

(she pulls out a stack of papers.)

an unbound sheaf of typewritten yellowed pages
tucked underneath a stack of time/life the enchanted world hardcovers

it smells like cardamom

“the berries and the plums:
the end of a wartime romance
by zelma natalija birģelis”

(grandmother appears.)

grandmother
h_llo susan
susan
h_llo grandmama

grandmother
i haven’t seen you since you were a little girl

susan
that’s zelma. my grandmama

grandmother
are you eating enough? you look thin

susan
i didn’t know you were a writer too

grandmother
oh that?
just a diversion
a little old person’s project
practicing my english
to keep my mind sharp

you’ve got to have something to do, susan
