Then suddenly - with the roads covered over
drivers find out, line sides of the road. The ditch
near 711 holds three dull Priuses.

I opened a window and you were in the steam,
18 and smoking Virginia Slims
You casually licked your bottom lip,
changing my life.

December 1: The Unexpected Gift

I once received an unexpected gift
A surprise of clarity that did not
Degrade into superiority
But when I offered it to my friend
She thought I was joking
Mocking,
“What would I do with that?”
Whatever you want, Kate.
Whatever you want
