You bought me a picture
of the eiffel tower at value
village, It's been in the kitchen
so long I forgot it was from you
I cleaned the surface half-aware
that I was disturbing your old
fingerprints.

Whatever It Takes.

Despite crying I am
relieved that you seem
happy.

She Goes.

the leaves spin
in her wake even
when the wind does
not blow, even when
she stands

still.
