A Radiant Neighbor
Kim commandeers hallway sockets in her high-rise
with a microwave to reduce her electric
bills: frozen dinners cooked outside her apartment.
An icy day clouds the sun seen through a window
of the building. Kim's smile captures the sun
racing across the sky to crack its disc
on her face, her chin and cheeks, a cheese-melted heart.
