There Are Habits That Grow


Photograph by Yi-Ching Lin


there are habits that grow


there are habits that grow
even more
familiar as i learn
to hold them –
habits that leave
holes inside of holes,
empty days inside
of empty months, habits
designed to squeeze
you out, to absorb
the predictable
sadness, habits
to carry my
childhood away
