Later Still
iv.
this is for
the man who locks
the
building
every night. because
he used to bring his
mother flowers
and she thought
the world of him, she thought
the world
of
him.
and this is for
the girl who asked
her grandma why she
peeled
the celery.
you can’t
she thought. but then
she didn’t know
the world
could peel
the skin off skin could
peel the skin
off
skin.
so this is for
the man who locks
the buildings
and
. the girl.
