1097

her husband drops her
off then looks for parking
a red hatchback
some stickers adorning
the bumper
“proud parent of X”
little badges for little birds

factory closed down
or opened up
what’s the difference

severance pay
fistful of blood

hold on

I wake up on a cookie sheet

remember when I saw you
at church and someone
threw salt on me

don’t forget the laundry
sugar pie
little babe

remember when I wore a collar
and barked all night

remember
remember
remember
