  • A Sort of Ode to Joy

    I got home from work at nine o’clock and decided that I would go down, through the gate, across the creek–socks mushy all of a sudden in my Adidas sneakers–and into the meadow for a walk without stopping to see anyone.

  • A few Julys ago

    Remember the girl?


     

    She’s in second grade,

    Maybe

    Blond brown curls

    Blue green eyes.


     

    She’s sitting on the top metal pole of the fence

    Chipped green paint

  • Wait

    It's summertime in Montana, and because we ranch, because animals and plants and the weather are on their own time, I sit around and wait a lot.

  • Eye Wish

    When you get an eyelash in your eye

    a wish will fall in with it

    each one holds memories

    stained with the makeup of your life

    if the memory is tainted

    with trauma, fear, or pain

  • sparkler

    there is peace in the darkness, an

    alluring sense of acceptance in failure

    closed eyes & open eyes both see the same

    but please

    stick out your hand

    & light a sparkler with me. for a moment
