I’m five percent of what I was
when I was somewhere near my peak
you can drag me to the trough
but I’ll probably never drink

you’re back now
but not quite how we imagined
you’re on the shelf now
with the things that never happened

Poetry is different
The little contains a lot

Yesterday my sons
With my brother Scott

Shamanic initiation
Postcards that I bought

Sent them all away
Readers: that's what I got

                   Aliens?
                  I thought.

Lucia Urreta
The Milky Way looks upon the field,
Millions of lights illuminating,
Each petal,
Each stem.
And as the sun sets,
The smell of fragrant herbs and summer skies grace the wind,
Painting the horizon.
Hues of purple run endlessly,
Roads to the boundary of heaven and earth,
Of soil and stars.
And as a lone bird sings,
The moon rises,
And washes the colors away in white.
