U-Turn

You can legally U-turn

on the Main Street bridge,

return to chase your heart

across the miles,

speed-grieve under lampposts

sprouting swaying flower baskets,

watch twilight’s neckline plunge

into lace camisoles of mist,

re-boil those hard

boiled eggs you couldn’t peel,

return to hope that you

can find a second chance.
