MUDDY WATERS

As winter holds
A knife to your throat
And whispers its honey
Into your naked ear
You put muddy waters
On the turntable
Pick up your coffee cup
And stare out 
the kitchen window
as you inhale the rainy air
you mouth a tiny prayer
and ask for a miracle
from a December
that’s just about as empty
as you can remember
