Ivan Ling
issue two.
gave me a heads-up, but arrived
earlier than expected & while
browning leaves drizzle in gold snow
elsewhere, the absolute horror of
evening traffic was working unpaid overtime.
does it change anything, then? watching
the same sunrises dance in wisps
of hydrangea blues & tulip pinks,
& as sunsets pull down their curtains
draped in emboldened ambers, I know
from my birthday, there are only
117 days left.
