xxiii

two years ago as we
both agreed things were
great the sunshine
in this parking lot its
grand entrance the
cat lying on my
favorite sweaters
it was too perfect
I cross the street for
my morning coffee
not bothering anymore
to look both ways
remember these apartments
they are subsidized
I lived here once
a fallen limb
still the two bright
lemons next to the Virgin
my powderblue Audi
the old Perrysburg-Holland Apartments
a pair of hummingbirds
lovingbirds flying out
out of the courtyard
at least I look sharp
