kindergarten friend I

we both crouched with our knees
practically at our chins
twisting the rough green strands between
our fingers. the blades caught gently
on shallow callous, the thicker rind
around the inside bend of curious
knuckles. “it tastes like
honey” said james, five-year-old
confident, so I
ate some too.
