Pastries and Other Things History Has Tried to Kill Us With
Miso Mermaid
If Only Summer
Associations
The temperature has fallen
/from grace
and under the belly of the common household cat,
snowflakes of numbers littered
across hardwood floors that have never seen spring
/out of favour
and out of fashion, among the arsenic greens
and broken toes, filing
for shelf space and a call number
/faster than expected
or a name could be found, classified
as a numbered catastrophe the way stars have quadrants
and empty bottles preach limits
/more silent than a crowd
and a sea of posters, the languages and symbols
of a shared nightmare
awaiting its bedtime story
/ to the equivalent of Rome
or simply like a snow globe from the top shelf,
all glitter and silent elephants roaming the misplaced streets
of another vaguely familiar city
