HOW WE LIVE NOW
Mud melts and refreezes
new snow falls
Daughter walking
on a crust of ice shrugs
her hot pink elbow gloves
penguin flippers
Won a jug of maple
hair cut cider loaf of bread
I don't like how much
I want it my friend said
of the house before her
bid was accepted
Dropped viscous oil of vetiver
bathing children whisk into a froth
Patriarch's pink blazer
colors the benefit yarn I dyed
with goldenrod snags on winter
dry hands skin hooks my sister says
Flossed gap left by the broken
filling uninsured still haven't called the dentist
Living in inn land
rented no gardens
dwell for a season
and pack up
Summer could be
whiskey Snorkmaiden's bikini
Blood orange dark maroon rich still
against fennel salt the chicken early
hot sauce on egg yolk
chalky sweet chestnut kobocha
Sing I'll take the low road I dream a highway
son demands all the verses by phone glow
Clean out desk drawers
mice nibbled
leather flats
I never wear
