It's Still Life

The World Was Never So Confusing Last Year.

Like in every story this one included
a woman of receding beauty.

She lived in a modest house, owned
a rescue horse that was entirely idle,
she never learned to ride a horse,
plus a rabbit that was intended for her
granny’s cast iron pot but that was
before she became a vegetarian.

They’re only carrots she reassured herself
as she chopped off their tops and tails.

The world was never so confusing last year.
