alone
underneath these sheets
dreamless night
clink, clunk, clink
of my spoon and fork
morning chill
graveyard garden
I walk through the memory
of her laughter
gathering dark
on the way home a stone
settles in my heart

this snow-on-snow world
of one color breaking me
bone by bone ...
afterward I'll be stronger
at the broken places

in MAGA hats
paint the border wall
with drunken shadows
