Hello degrees-
When I write poems, I often cut/edit, use as few words as possible.
When I read poems, I often do the same thing.
This piece speaks to me more clearly if I read it like this:
Bankruptcy
we have been lying here
for years now, on occasion
we hold hands, sing psalms
however, when winter comes
American streets spread wider
and wider, like yawns and aches
