this is the what if
this is the what if
we starve fancy raisin
bread, coupled with the
in case we get bored dried
apricots, with one oops,
i knew i would forget
something bottle of water
between us, and some

when we really need to
use it paper towels –
we are in the middle of
a day trip out of the
city, somewhere along
a wooded trail – maybe
we should have
printed out a map. i’ve
always wanted a cell phone
charger that plugs straight
into the earth. where should

across the boroughs,
and lining up outside
grocery stores under
a cool blue sky –
despite everything, still
leaning on her southern
charm, like a new art form

at every corner –
the time during which we may or
may not linger gives us away

love is a zombie
parasite that
turns us onto
city streets –
i am rounding
similar corners
for the ninety-fifth
time, seeing and
not seeing, feeding
parallel dreams
