April 1.

 Maybe I didn't listen hard enough


O woe rule water rises
(and won't stop)
she drove away forgot
shoe dangled
on the brake

O woe no molasses
dignity still
sometimes she answered

O woe dervish horse brain
the girl alone ghost telephone
rang was she calling me from her bed

O woe alone in her bed
the phone rang
don’t let me go tonight
she said

O woe don't let me go

Your words swim with sorrow and static.

I might be writing about the girl over and over this year. It’s too early to tell. Thank you for being here Mary.
