30 Days

Post by NicoleMichaels » Tue Apr 03, 2018 10:17 pm

Time to pay off a charge
on a credit card,

or nearly equal
to the lifespan of a fly.

The waiting period
of a handgun purchase in Iowa,

or four times the shelf life
of a gallon of milk.

Within seven days,
sunflower seeds will germinate

in a sunny window,
chuting from their yoga positions

through moistened soil
while we write,

our bodies lowered
like watering cans.
