Old Song by Valencia Robin

playing me on this empty house morning / all the windows blinds wide open / not one tree not blooming / and the light this time of year / the quality of which the quality of which / as if making it through the day isn’t enough /

In the backyard, / like burying cacti into the earth, / she buried her letters / next to earthworm cocoons.
