Places bodies can’t reach:
1.) clapping mint leaves to release aroma:
uprooting backyard leaves
iced tea sweetened with fig syrup
savoring an idea of sweetness lingering,
not as if we actually drink mint
2.) space left on my twin bed:
when you lay down you take the majority
and i don't mind
isn't it tender to choose to sleep in a twin
past the age of 17
3.) my roommate hosted a birthday party:
one where everyone says goodbye
then stays to talk on the porch
join me in the place where lives are bound together
by a cord of three strands.
