- WINTER WITHOUT YOU Tonight, Brooklyn was so cold, / it pulled itself a little closer to Manhattan / just to have something warm to lie next to. / Earlier this week, I stacked a pile of laundry / fresh from the drier and dove in it like it was / autumn leaves, like I thought I could stop the fading, / could keep the colors if I held them in my hands. / Winter has arrived like the stray cat / who patrols my neighborhood—/ annoyed by my foolish surprise / at its sudden appearance. / My building's Super rang my doorbell / this afternoon and came in to change / the knob on my heater. I greeted him / in flannel pajama pants and a sweatshirt. / Oh, thank goodness, I laughed. The heat / has been clanking all night, and it keeps / me awake. He considered the pile of / unfolded laundry and 1 PM pajamas. / Just you? He asked. Just me. / It is December, and nobody asked if I was ready. // Sarah Kay, No Matter the Wreckage (remote)
