First Avenue
after/for Rae Armantrout
(the) silence
under peerless
vehicle noise
seems like
the only
is
*
doctor says
you had
a heart attack
when
(you ask)
(busy year)
*
those bricks red
for the office
official order
for ignoring
speed past
*
economics
interrupt this poem
child places bow
in hair
wails: but I can’t
pay the rent
still
*
Harvard says
half of all heart attacks
remain unrecognized
you’re not
so bad
*
didn’t mind
constant honking
or hated it
