how to heal from heartbreak

it’s sunny, go for a walk.

brew butternut squash elixir, bright yellow,

and lift it to your bruised lips

wipe away the bags under your eyes with fresh aloe vera

brush your finger pads over the poetry of wise women

listen to the words of wiser women

hug yourself with tight circles of lotion on your tired skin

write his name down and burn the paper

throw the ashes in a river,

a glassy forever river

ripples eternal and concentric and suddenly

not there anymore
