Spring is a spry cat –

Spring is a spry cat –
we follow, helpless to its
mercurial whims

on the last day of
november, it’s near sixty

autumn pauses its camouflage
unsure of which way to turn

t minus one entire

t minus one entire
season to winter,
mom and i are giddy,
fingers sugar-
tipped, mouths
citrusy sweet.
end-of-summer
weather is meant
to be this candied-
orange-peel-sticky

in the beginning was

in the beginning was
the word, and the word
was stella, rapping so
gently at my
window with her icy
knuckles this morning –
despite forecasts
and city shutdowns
and a state of emergency
declaration and thousands
of plows deployed
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

i still choose

i still choose
you daily –
wake up, check
the weather,
put on your
love, first
left brain,
then right brain,
draw it
all the way down
my lungs
over my heart – it is
a pullover kind of
accommodation,
and there are days
when i am like
a child, looking
for every excuse
to peel it off,
feel something new

the city negotiates
with sky, a slow dance
