POETRY
publilshed by Retort Magazine, on April 20th, 2010I had tried so many different things,
tried everything
but the fire wouldn’t take;
the Christmas tree I had hacked to pieces
on the 6th of January in my 33rd year
then left for a month
to dry, sap forming beads
on the branches’ cut ends
(crown of studs
around a breast)
was fed into the chimney
as kindling;
