Monthly Poem February 2025
Required Reading

read Sweet Dream Pie, not Epictetus—
any Stoic podcasting, Teen Vogue next year:
Animalic perfume: eau de toilette,
notes of sweat and French cigarettes or
opening the fridge during pregnancy,
anticipatory Valentine: chocolate malt,
endless February, pining and
pinning the butterfly.
