when the outside air
was only a windowsill
away
me with a big book
about death
that i'd checked out
over and over again
from the library
listening to the endless
houston rain
as i thumbed through
the pages
"love tko" sliding
in and out of earshot
wiling the day away
in the only peace
i could hold on to
before the storm
started once more
(grow)
