What Was Lost
by Kerfe Roig
A taxi,
a wallet:
what was really lost?
No comfort
in this return. Forever
unfillable. Gone.

NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR: When I got into the back seat of a taxi several years ago, there was a wallet on the floor. I located the owner through the phone number of a friend that was inside. It was a somber face that met me when I went to her apartment building to return the lost property: she had been taking her dog to the vet for the last time.
