I was named

I was named

After father’s addio to a Fulbright soprano

After his show-and-tell taking mom to family in an upstate hamlet

After a Bellevue sleepover — mom dragged from a Manhattan sidewalk

After a Creedmoor hospitalization — stop the Thorazine, she’s pregnant!

After a maternity home cooling and stretching

Named after long-dead infants and a diminished uncle,

And then, forget it

New family, named again
