Alexis Sears, “September” [ID In Alt Text]

I know I could do better. / I could go outside, get some sun. Instead, / I watch from my window as the snow falls / as if God is grating parmesan / over the city: Say when. I’ve never / had the chance to love desperately, / but I’ve felt rage worm its way through / my stomach like a parasite. So many things / I cannot say aloud: It would be wrong to bring / a child into the world to watch me suffer, to suffer / with me won’t win me any friends. / Am I worse off than anyone else, / though? I sip my dark roast, spell my / name in carrots on the counter. I am / no longer, at least, a monument / to damage: my ribcage a coliseum, / its broken edges jabbing / at the sky. The faint sounds / of Earth, Wind & Fire play / in my kitchen, and I smile, / even shimmy a little. None of us / will last forever. Someday, / maybe soon, everything will ache / a little less.
