From year to year there are
memories snowing, covering
and blocking the driveway
I shovel them aside
I must get out, I must
do some shopping
And when they start to melt
when they drip down
the drainpipe and run away
I lie awake in bed
listening and following
the rippling in the gutter
It makes me desperate
I want to leave, a break
to write it all down
to tell it
in the dark and be
answered, applauded
