my hips,
I often think of sex while I walk,
it keeps me from writing & forgetting
poems or thank you notes.
I tightened my fingertip grasp & released the clasped bra
strap from her back,
earlier that day
she told me that cancer wasn't a good
enough reason for breaking up,
so I bought flowers & walked
all the way home to write this.
