Blue

Maybe she was wrong about August
Maybe she was wrong about a lot of things.

Maybe eight glasses of water a day was one too many
glasses of anything in any given day.

Maybe second kisses were more important
than first kisses

Maybe the blue morpho butterfly wasn’t only
sighted in Costa Rica. Because this morning
walking in the woods, she inhaled one. Her chest is
full of wing fluttering and now she can’t settle down
on any one spot very long.
