Unfaithful

Now I blog somewhere
else. A paid professional,
thousands read my work.

Importance

follow me like flies all be

When you’re not here we
skip dinner, fall asleep with

Pulled out sweaters, pulled on socks.
A fall admission.

The next day

purple as grapes, lids heavy
as harvest-ripe vines.

up late. God forbid you should
worry about me.

Self-promotion

Too few syllables
to write about Blogs We Luv.

Word whore

I was first published
in Seventeen magazine
thirty years ago.

About October 10th

I’m unsure whether
joy or terror will greet the
news that I am live.
