THIS POSSIBLE LIFE





I trace our cuts again. Time beneath



each other’s hands. A heap of sound.



Streets all fluttering. Boy walks



ahead of me always. He can’t



remember if he changed the sheets.



He says his hands are cold. A broken



window. How long will it take



him to notice. We arrive in the middle



of the movie & stitch. There are only



so many days I can wear the same face.
