183

Alaska changed when I got there
but I didn't

I let me go into the snow
and left me there and took me away.
So what, I'd never seen snow.
I'd never seen the inside
of the apartment upstairs, either,
until the lights went out and I needed
to borrow a candle.

I don't want to close my eyes
but otherwise I drip
onto everything I touch
