Mon. October 3

As I sit staring blankly out the

window

sadly scarred tops of trees gently dip

to meet my gaze

              my feet, bare feet

worn as an old pair of sneakers

 

Her mom, or grandma is in the hospital

             what the hell am i supposed to say to that

nothing really

back to the trees, back to the room

then, back to the trees again.

             I wonder what spewing industrial complex created the rain

to **** these trees

          

This morning was brisk, fall is coming

 

she keeps looking at me

whatever

dandruff falls like needles off the turning pine from the portly boys head in front of me
