I woke in the middle of the night to the sound of a baby crying. I’d thrown on my robe and jumped into my slippers—wrong-footed—and had already begun to heat water on the stove for her bottle when I rubbed my eyes and remembered I lived alone. I walked through my apartment touching things, touching everything I own—laptop, backpack, laundry baskets—and then, for a long time, watched the snow fall on the street.

The awful fall up off all fours
From the forest
To the hours…
Tick, Tock: Divine me.
