at the cover of the box
the puzzle
came in.
one thousand pieces.
it's a windmill
in Holland
surrounded
by tulips.
a cascade of flowers.
red, yellow, white.
the sky is blue
with puffy white clouds.
i put my elbows
on the table
and rub my face.
i need a drink.
i go to the kitchen and
pour
vodka and Kalua
into the blender,
some cream
and hit the button for
shake.
it's nine a.m. Eastern
Standard
Time.
i take my drink and sit
back down.
i find my first piece.
