the well bucket
coming up dry
I find
no real reason
to keep loving you

mouse tracks
across new snow
this feeling
of barely
existing at all

the hatchling
dead below the nest
these thoughts
about how my life
was never meant to be

longing
to see you
the soft wet flesh
of a mango
exposed

its body
large in my daughter’s
small hands
the tragic beauty of
a dead Luna moth

the neighbor’s dog
left chained up
in the cold
how you don’t love me
but won’t let me go

quarantine
being the eccentric
