If I could keep this: this linden tree feeling
when all-time melts into one stiff driveway
and I can only fold a love song into telephone
lines. There’s a satellite that will take me
any-
where to you. The way a map opens, lifelike,
and grows to make a system out of any speck
of land makes each day spent without you
seem like any minute someone will inform
me that I’ve been walking around with so
many broken bones.
— Kat Dixon
