To my family, you ground and elevate me all at once
There was a star riding through clouds one night, & I said to the star, ‘Consume me’.

Poems on Receipts
22_a_lbj23.jpgReceipts from Grocery
I hate it when I see fragments of you
In crowded cafes and khaki pants
Black headsets and big backpacks
In between sighs and 2 a.m. goodbyes
7-eleven dates and sudden walks in the rain
Smiles flashing and silences between laughs
We might have worked out past the sight of now and today
But everybody’s gone home
You did what you did
And I said what I said
This is where I should write, I hate you, and I wish we never met
But in between the lines—with every inch of my fiber

Leaving me heaving with
