Remember
Remember
In the winter
your hair gets darker
with the brittle morning hours,
empty and blacker
than coffee
blacker than coffee
black like
congealing thoughts
sharpened by the cold, but
swallowed by the clock
tick
tock
A crack divides
the filmy glass
but the dust won’t set alight.
The city snow turns grey by noon
like vapid skin
worn stretched out thin
over bones,
her bones
Breathe
Forget
