wrapper
Stephen made me....
on the day the crocuses die
the bleeding hearts bloom and
you, depart with our money.
leaving behind
bread bags and a velvet sac
containing baby teeth.
with my last dollar
I purchase 2 pieces of chocolate
uncover them slowly, let
their richness soften my tongue
deliberately, I fold the empty wrappers, and place them in my pocket.
