bedford, pennsylvania

"bedford, pennsylvania"

the chipping sparrow are stirring; the snow geese
feel the water rise against their feet. Autumn
spends her time running from
December.

townsfolk are keeping the secrets of
their mothers and father. shame, and a
desperate feeling to fall asleep.

grandad's bones keeping creaking. he tells me
we deserve this. i am not worried,

the winter will pass and my hunger will
follow.
