Welcoming Party
they left a pile of trash
so high that the city
had to come and take it
but before then
every
single
middle
aged
woman
who lived around
in that ‘upscale neighborhood’
would casually walk by
picking out things
that they’d take
when we weren’t looking
ignoring our request
to leave the refuse alone

I’ve enjoyed reading your work this month. I like the dark side of poetry, but also your dark humor.
Thank you so much for your support.
