Somewhere across the concrete yard that gives
Pause 'tween the teeth of my Yorkville block
Someone is beating a nail into wood
Tap, tap, bang
Hammer nail two by four
Monotone marimba
Unfortunate concerto
And I– I linger in bed
'gainst open window cold
Covers yanked up
Around my bare breasts
Whilst an impatient January morning
Circles like a wolf
Eager for a fallen scrap of meat.
