January 1 Poem

January 1 Poem

Basquiat-inspired teeth


to write rhythmically a ladder in the stockings
in the era before the remote control
red chairs with white cushions 
don't forget to catch me 
with snow that covers the mind like a blanket
and the moon tickling the sky 
declaring love 
to get off my feet
and back on again
in starry-eyed letters
what comes in two?
flowers, some flowers do
