I watched you cross the veil. Fur-shaking raindrops on the scene. Like a king. Pole leaning and beckoning me into your spell. Boots scuffed from a reckoning. You are a pillar of salt and I am evaporating. We don’t talk. We sing. What an epiphany. Then nothing. Until QDP. All consuming reverie. Head on chest poetry. Legs entwined in the sunrise with Jessie. Doorframe kissing. This is everything. May it all rest in peace.

my son in law to be

started crying during

the wedding rehearsal.

It trickles down to me like dry rain.
I beat out on the earth to measure my time

The soil looks at me, as if I were strange.

He
Humbled me

She
Humbled me


The river running, humbled me away.

I see your pride and honor

Do you not see the Earth?
