women for whom i should not be writing poems: iii

by Brynn Dizack

i will always
love her.

she is not the woman
poring over apples in the grocery store;
holding the high collar of a peacoat against her throat while waiting for the deathslow leak of a gas pump;
working at the local coffeeshop with a towel tucked in her belt.

she is not
the girlfriend,
the professor,
the printmaker,
the critic,
the painter,
the painter's girlfriend,
or
the ex. but.

i will always
remember

the morning we lay together
buzzing for hours
on survival of
the night before.
