heads up

as she flung her
christmas tree
off the blacony
of her ninth floor
condo, she forgot
to take the lights
off, and the star
on top. but it was
march. and the whole
thing at this point
was an afterthought.
she had no idea
though that her
neighbor who blows
smoke through the
vents, because they
hate each other
was down below walking
her dog. it was
an accident and yet,
perhaps not.
