1836.

greeted home tonight by fireworks above the pines, the whine of bottlerockets and somewhere the yapping of a small dog deeply unhappy the borderline between one year and the next nothing more than a few hours of darkness and the same streets waiting to find you in the morning

#365 #poetry #what's funny is that i swear to you that i have been writing one poem a day now for a number of years #i don't feel like doing division but there are years and there's a number it's definitely more than one #but i know damn well that if i did the math it would not at all divide nicely into a good number of years #like it's off by some strange number of poems #and i could dig and dig and never tell you how it happened #it's 1800 poems that's a lot of poems i'm not going through to figure out where i lost count at this point #but yeah i do think about that sometimes actually
