he treads softly back to her door,
slams it. and she calls, thank you
and wonders if her lungs are still puffy with tar as she examines her eyes still laden with last night in the spout
of the tea kettle, emblazoned with his fingerprints and she wonders how long they will
stay. and she wonders if it matters if he and she could just as easily
mean anyone.


puzzlingthe world is missing four continents and half an ocean. comforting blue of the seapuzzling
is stacked somewhere near the moon until god comes home
from her granddaughters house on the bus with the vinyl seats
and metal springs that pierce holes
in her shopping bags. south africa, the color of a creamsicle
and the size of a matchbook,
