Christian Hennie, Tikk Takk
Burning the Calendar
for Caroline
Maria Berardi
 

​You know how the last year has gone:
commit the evidence to the fire.
 
To cast forth a wish for the next year, 
knowing, knowing this—utter vulnerability.
 
Render over your awful, open, heart.
The blue flames feed
 
and feeding, heat.
Outside the air is ice.
