>This warm hounds-tooth pattern
that is keeping my porcelain skin
     is my favorite...
     my idea of New York
to own a hundred is my intent.

>I love the crinkle of my notebook
its worn, like me.
Not perfect white for winter,
    like my idea of New York.
to fill a single closet- if not shared- is my intent.

>This pink metallic lacquer
that is dented and perfect- on my nails.
These lemon-lime thongs upon my feet,
    But I do not understand
    that since my seatbelt is fastened
    the light is still on.

>The flight hits roadwork
and I bump along for a few moments.
    I have already prayed for safety,
    so this does not scare me.

>But I do miss the sweet earth.
>Smells of Seattle linger in my jacket.
