  • It's Time

    Honestly, it’s hard to believe that as I’m writing this, lounging here in a big bus (treat from Iteam), I’m completing four weeks in Guatemala. I had no idea I would be able to do this trip. My brain was full of fears.

  • 1am

    Home is

    trying not to smudge 

    our still-sticky nail polish

    on the carpet

    as we sit

    cross-crossed

    on the floor

    spilling secrets

    & memories

    our speech sliding

  • A Hug of People

    We didn't know the guy 

    in the truck 

    who's that guy? 

    my sister asked, 

    and I wondered if city people 

    expected to know everyone 

    they saw around town. 

  • Summer

    the air tastes like honey and promise 

    sticky with the scent of blooming jasmine 

    and freshly cut grass that crunches beneath bare feet 

    the sky drips blue 

    stretching wider every afternoon
