The Reliability of Cards
by Michele McDannold
how I feel about it does not matter
the writer writes
those are the words
you get it off or not
to confuse me with the message
would be a sad mistake
it might leave you
bitter and tried
or silly and made
my associations are a hand-made deck of cards
this life is only little bits of what you
make it believe
Sunday mornings
apple pie
baseball
the first time you do
anything
