UNIQUE

You changed your first name
then chose the name of a mountain for your new surname.
You sent us letters written in block capitals,
explaining how you liked your job
but that you were having repetitive, distracting thoughts.
ITS A PITY
AS THIS JOB IS UNIQUE.
As were you, but too much so.
Apparently you’ve been admitted.
You’re no longer delivering your pamphlets,
walking the streets
RAIN SHINE HOT SUN MOODY
with your orange satchel and your
DREAMY
eyes.
As you described them.
As I would too.
