We Don't Know What to Love

I've opened my mouth for too many strangers,
pushed their broken wheelchairs across crowded streets
wondering
who gave me this job.

Let's write poetry,
sing-along to spanish songs and
forget that it's cold outside.

This isn't about the long-haul or
fixing broken shelves-

This is about poetry and foreign languages-
the only things to love because

[love is a never-ending game we seem to think we can win or lose]
