Settling As Death

 

“In the beginning you held me all night long

rarely does this happen anymore

And I know this is just one of the minor deaths

for which I, as an adult,

am expected to settle

like I do with the mice

squealing at night

from the glue traps under the radiator.

I'm supposed to close my eyes,

repeat the mantra

That's life...

But I lie awake

next to you

and I imagine them

chewing off their little feet''
