what is the significance
of a year
why does anniversary mean more
than weekiversary
month-and-a-dayiversary
a term used to express the time it takes this dirtball to travel around that hydrogenball
why should i
feel different
than every day
for the past year
never been good
at what the shrinks call closure
even if i am writing this now
(how many bad poems are being written today)
but i’m not closing
i’m harboring
i’m not forgiving
and i can’t forget
