Crunch in the Night
It’s Thursday and you’re fearful
what does Thursday carry
in its small sack
Perhaps some fruit or
cookies that go crunch in the night
Nothing really special
anymore in that sack
No love letters
or dried flowers
saved from your wedding bouquet
bound with white silk ribbon
— gone to ash
