12673 Jalepeno ave. Chino, Ca. (Free verse) by Jeremi B. Handrinos
I drove by your old house
yesterday. There was a young
couple inside with a baby &
people milling about smiling.
I thought about how we used
to hide in those junipers out front
& play truth or dare as an excuse
to get familiar with our bodies.
I sat there across the street
and finished up my cigarette
An old man inside shot me a look
Then abruptly closed the curtains.
The house was smaller without you.
