oh my goodness it's march...

and it's been

one year since february first sent us into the night.

she sent us with tall orders about the morning after

that night. orders

about breakfast and words and loving

each other. be good to each other,

february whispered, i think.

be excellent to each other, maybe.

sip champagne and whiskey, kiss strangers, dance

freely, write papers, read books, wear

clogs, do yoga, cry often, skip when necessarily,

eat when not, choose sleep some nights and adventure

others, but always, always, wake

in the morning to snoozing alarms, dining hall coffee,

smart start with soy milk and a poem. write them

for frank. or each other.

or yourselves. or no one at all.

and no matter what, be excellent to each other.
