Letters
What beside letter
slipped
under back door
three days laid
on counter
unopened morning signals
rise too blinds
smell of breakfast burn ing
s waft through half raised
wind ow
deliberately
stripped to bare
skin
while leaves
in small piles
once were burned
drew all attention
towards lingering
smell
a woman
wait ing.
next to her
next to couch
next
Bonded Jim Beam
did me in...
sealed letter
whiskey on ice
