Not all that long ago
she would sit outside
just a quarter till 5
and know for almost certain
that soon she’ll be holding
an Americano
and catching up
on bits and pieces
tying up loose ends
Now it seems
so long ago
she still sits outside
every Tuesday after 5
letting her words go
where they might
while she wonders
if they are read
and drawn
