Scraphouse

and meet me at the scraphouse on Elm,
beneath the boxelder’s broken limb
and i will peel off a few secrets
if you promise to leave behind
a hand-drawn map 
made of what’s left
so that i may find my way home.

John M. Bellinger is co–managing editor of The Comstock Review (38 years in print!). He has published poetry before, and apparently is doing so again. Gotta love that.
