Neither Snow Shovel nor Hoe

There was absolutely no way

to make a life, no matter how much you read,

how much time alone.

A very nice man,

veritably “strapping” and “you know what that’s for”

I booted up, “got

my stagger back” was suddenly happy thinking

about a possible walk after dark, whence I would not be raped and could

show off a mountain, like it was fucking

mine.

One day he “want to know everything about you”

he “like you even more after seeing you with your kids”

died unawares when given the opportunity

to follow up on why I felt

“kinda saddish and weird”.

Yes, I hear you,

why do I always secretly refer to things?

Things almost no one will know?

Some one is knocking, they have taken a shower,

put on a fancy corduroy shirt and come to tell you

they have googled you

you are beautiful

“I must now pack

and go”.
