Áshe,
HL
***
No use to say
Wendy Chen
that I was born here
in a small red house
on the Connecticut River.
In the winter, we’d walk
by its strip of Listerine
blue ice,
knowing spring
would turn our print
to water,
and water
to New England clay.
No. I am not
American.
For you, I am
brom no country
but the East,
my body fragrant
as star anise.
