Backstacks
by Anne L. Cunningham

Cowboys are my weakness,
and what we talk about
when we talk about love,
operating instructions
and the way we look forward
with a broken heart.
Almost no memory
of these wonder boys
or tomcats in love,
and me, a lonely girl
with burning eyes
and landfill meditations,
your name written on water
