January Micro 2023: 6

all the things

visitors don’t remark —

offerings on the sill

a small ritual every morning

the upturned broom by the door … 






















*


finishing the library books

a three-day feast

of (mostly) very good poetry —

and now my mind 

is blank, my pen still


*


He’d love to stop work.

‘Change that conversation,’

I long to say —

as his back pain

gradually gets worse.
