On Day 105, We Pulled Out

on day 105, we pulled out

on day 105, we pulled out
the cliché of
faded photographs
and pretended
that the clear
sheath could protect
us from our most
recent shedding, that
it would be a strong
enough barrier to
grief. for an entire
morning, we could
not even finish
the first of
eight solid albums, our
pickup suddenly
so worn
.
