Death in a Carry-on

She gets on in Lordsburg

and gets off

in Las Cruces,

leaving everything

behind.

She has somewhere

to be,

and it's stuffed inside

her polyester pocket.

Stacking Books to Webern

The Great Escape

Fast Talker

Smelling Books to Scriabin

Eating Crackers to Bach

Raging Over a Lost Penny to Beethoven

praying the obstinate wind will let him at least pretend

that his grip is valorous.

Wrapped Around My Wrist

Wrapped around my wrist

And saved for another time,

I'll forget you're there.

Simple

Rachel Leslie

That's for Google.
