Shadowy Valentine

The garbage truck

bellows at every gate

but I’m still not hungry

after a piece of bread

that looked like a work of art

dipped in butter

and honey the wind

flicking its robes

angry at someone else’s

sorrow lifting

the book from my

hands and you

ride through the yard

sweating with your bike

home I’m here

over here

swept into

this dark corner.
