Harder Than the Fall by Ruthie Foster


yearling

what do you mean,
hello?

it has been a year.

long silence

and then
copper boom

you must
have thought about me
in between, you

wrote on my wall.
must

have been a mistake.
4 a.m.

whiskey.
it happens.
could you?

no one else
can see it.

oh, mae,
sometimes

you're in someone else's
arms
inside my dream, i

saw you there
last year
in september.

you saw me, too.

i would have died for that.

i just wanted
to hear you
say

hello...
