like

unbuttered toast


a broken zipper


cold tea


a clasp

with a gap

on a necklace

that won’t close


that post it note

with that thing I wrote

that I can’t remember

that said everything

I’m tired of feeling


the persistent drip

in the kitchen sink

that no repairwoman

can fix


the rage of a million heartaches

muted & amplified

by the million and first one


hesitant rain on wednesday


pen sprinting races

then breathless

running out of ink


finishing what

reluctantly began


no one telling you

what’s right

stopped mattering

last sunday


the fortune cookie with stupid advice


snow too stubborn to melt in the presence of sun
