•

the fly leaves the plate

tiny bits of butter

on its feet

•

•

•

when I awake

if there isn’t a list

I write one

•

•

•

when I awake

the cat keeps

the sadness away

•

•

•

when I awake

you have gone

to sleep

•

•

•

when I awake

I have to check

which house I’m in

•

•

•

when I awake

I wonder about

the crepe myrtle

•

•

•

refilling the wiper fluid

she gives you

a second kiss

•

•

•

last light of dusk

the rain turns

green

•

•

•

sleep

a bridge with

holes

•

•

•

in the shower

you realize moths

were in your hair

•
