Fermenting

by Foxes and Magnolias

By the furbelowing plants in the windowsill,

was the wine you poured for me, hardly afternoon,

growing warm with ample sun

from through the bay.

 

I wondered, while sitting

Tuesday, drinking

if some day

I’d be looking through linted pockets

to find remnants of you,

if one day the ring of wine stain

on the windowsill

would cause me to cry.
