Del Monte
I know I’ve made it because my hands smell like corn, and by my feet is a can that says Del Monte.

Feel
When I met a girl on Omegle who read me like three incoherent, handwritten, multi-page love poems
I think that's what it means to feel something

Kaddish
I never paid attention when I went to Jewish school, and I never once sat through services
And yet I know the sound, like a heartbeat in grey

I Want to Write a Breakup Poem
I wish I could go through a breakup.
I want to write sad poems
And listen to sad music
And cry in the dark
And scream into my pillow

Victory Speech in Spite of Winter
Holy shit, we did it
89 days of 15-hour nights that we survived
The many miles in many layers trudged through many inches of snow are behind us

Evenings
Do you remember those September evenings we spent together in the playground?
The shiny rock we put in our pockets and the ugly little rocks that got lodged in our heels.

Today I watched a child smile
small, easy, innocent.A face that has not yet learned
what the world can take and give. -

Societal grief
I sit in polished classrooms
behind gates and old brick walls,
arriving in quiet cars
that glide past the lines outside.
