In my room I have my 
bed, books, and my dresser, plus 
my desk, which contains 
a long drawer & a smaller drawer, 
the former of which holds many 
valuable items–

One is my notebook, 

During times like this, all I need is that feeling of diving down deep under the water & into the infinite depths of a book which tears your heart open and leaves it strewn about in pieces on the ocean floor.
 

Midsummer.
It makes me think
of blueberries.

Warm lake water & the 
occasional rainstorm–midsummer.
Dried out tall grass bursting
with ticks who want to catch
a ride; we walk anyway.

Forgiveness 
and apologies
filled that bucket
which tipped, spilled,
cascaded down 
onto me like
a small yet 
dense portion of
Niagara Falls, 
and filled my
world with
sorrowful change,
