Granule

There is a hole when I look up
from the table to see
               that you are gone.
The tiny indentations left
in our forearms
                    leaning
across sugar crystals
in a time when a single
     granule
was a large enough prospect
for us to meet, for
my look
to be taken up. Now
the sugar is what it is. It is
packets. Packeted
heaped teaspoons and their
featureless
           interruptions.
