Minnesota Morning
July 30, 2012
Its not important
how the cold bit my skin
how the wind cut my throat
how, for months, it had snowed
its not meaningful when i say
that the trees were too big
that my eyes ran, froze
or that the razor, last night hurt
i don't think
it was the sweetness
or the sickness in my chest
or how i already knew
a crystal morning
table set
hot chocolate
a warm shower
then cold toes...
a running nose
feet planted in the snow
a shiver
a pair of blue eyes
How you said goodbye...
a breath
you're gone.
choice
the bunny
over the dog
