Lining things up

It wasn't just the turtle who ordered the world in blueberries.

It helps
To line up
Possibilities,
Know one is not alone
In this world.
One is never alone
But sometimes
It feels that way.
There is no such thing
As alone
Still
Sometimes
It feels that way.
I ate
All the blueberries
In the refrigerator
Move on
To clear out
The apples.
My beloved
Will come home
Tomorrow.
We will
Fill the refrigerator
With blueberries.
The possibility
Of my beloved,
The possibility
Of endless blueberries,
Shelves
Of blueberries,
My beloved grading
At the table,
Grading
In the other room
Lines things up
In their
Natural order.
