days before the new

days before the new
year, old
memories stumble
upon even older
memories, overlap,
wrinkle, uninvited.

and not resisting
is the acceptance
that they will arise
fewer and farther
between in the
years to come.

kaleidoscope in
remembrance of us

by ten thousand nails

saturday, you were

saturday, you were
out of this world and into
the next one – every

we held on so we wouldn’t slip

on the landing
between
the fifth floor and the
roof, we found it –
a super blue blood
moon
dangling
out the window,
wedged
in a sliver
of brooklyn sky

frost clings to the first

the year of the dog

the year of the dog
is wagging its tail, ready
to pounce, wrestle the

rooster to bed before it
gets into any more trouble
