1.
ice on the windshield.
i chip and scrape
until my hands are blue.
2.
the blinds cut the evening
sun onto the wall.
waiting for you to return.
3.
stranded roadside
smoke billows from the engine.
starlings black against the sky.
4.
the refrigerator hums,
the heater clicks on.
the house without you.
5.
headlights pass over walls.
even the dog
perks his ears for you.
6.
a cold moon
hangs in the window.
your pillow still bare.
