Sex With Trees and Other Things Equally Responsive Rebecca Lu Kiernan

To The Bat Living In The Air Vent

Dear Bruce,
I have left you seven headless mice
in the refrigerator next to the lamb
and a silver starling in a cigar box
decorated with shell shaped macaroni
spray painted gold on the pie shelf
next to a jar of fireflies.
I miss you already.
