red pockets for a single sister
maybe someday,
my sisters (I have four)—the ones who
have married and moved far away—
will linger close
one new year (we hold Christmas
late so all can attend)
and hand me an envelope—
we are married,
they’ll say,
and we wanted that luck
and chaos and fear
and happiness and pain
to be yours as well.
and I’ll open it,
and bow my thanks
and hug them for their pains
before sending them back to
husbands and children.
and maybe their luck
will be shared
in that little envelope.
