license plates
blind dates
constantly rising interest rates
rebates
mail-in
five
one-hundred
nine
ten
doing everything over again
lack of silence
violence on the news
heavy shoes
the blues
not believing
deceiving
perceiving you in the wrong light
sleeping alone at night
fear
the tear that comes
trying to say I love you
being above you
seeing through liars
fires too hot for skin
not knowing how it feels
to be in someone
Film reels
cigarette burns
tobacco fields
left-hand turns
Red ribbon
Robins
Reading just to learn
Caterpillars
when they’re yellow
marshmallows
plastic handled teakettles
without water
Being someone’s daughter.
sorta.
