New Friend

My ex gave me a drawing they made

A house plant and its shadow

Across which is written 


      N

ew

friend


I kept it propped against the wall 

Until it began to wilt 

Hopeful of a new frame


Today I found one in a pile of free stuff


The new year winked at me

Closing one of two eyes
