baklava and vodka
stuck on a trainsomewhere outside of petrograd
the biggest snowdrift i have ever seen
is sprawled across the tracks.
the samovor begins to boil and i feed you easter bread
while you snuggle up to me in our carriage,
whispering about the tragedy of turgenev's 'on the eve'
as the sun creates cobwebs in my eyes
and i drift into a sleeping landscape where we never wreck
before vladivostok.
