in the apartment w/the maple tree
grew over seven years to tap
nightmares on window to white
-walled room where I played Barbie
strip show w/my best
second-grade friend & murder
w/another once her mother
decided I was too disrespectful
in the apartment
was a dishwasher
& sometimes acrid smoke announced
Tupperware cup had melted
just the way I like them now
dishwashers are safer
I buy my plastic cups at Goodwill
& throw them in backyard leaf fires
saving all my failures
on my bedroom shelves
(fire singes more
than elements did
it isn't easy
being alone
There should be a better way to start a day than waking up every morning.
