when all the cake has been eaten and everyone has gone home
i will walk through my apartment shoeless
in my dress and tights
clutch that pillow on the couch and fall asleep
***
a bouquet of white lilies
in aluminum foil wrapping
a couple of pork belly tacos and cans of tecate
topped off with a walk through wicker park
arm in arm
to avoid any kind of falling
physical
emotional
my feet are firmly planted
and i refuse to let them go
