london, you grandparent

London, United Kingdom

on the way to buy an apple and a pear, i found a scarf on the sidewalk, dabbing the slim wrists of the street with a smell like cherry tobacco.
i try to recognize myself in you, london. you grandparent. you practical gift giver. but it obvious our childhoods were so different.
it is obvious that you recognize in me, the buds, draped over your sturdy, breadcrust walls, who've already stopped wearing their jackets, their pink insides trembling.
