There are a few things I will miss,
a girl with no shirt on
lighting a cigarette
and brushing her hair in the mirror;
the sound of a mailbox
opening, somewhere,
and closing at two in the morning
of the first snow,
and the words for them.

Boiling cranberries and oranges and sugar. Never Love drifting through the apartment as K sings and strums behind her bedroom door. Cat tails. Open matchbook. I can see my breath in my bank statement.
