  • three by five

    Simulacra Placing favorite omens into my lap,  Fingers’ printings of paintings in mother’s arms. I’m making an offer, care for understanding I just never had for the real thing, Speaking to you in your native tongue. Mag fi sticks Your attic weighs in your first departure, Strings tied to one ankle for a salvageable trip.… Read more

    Reach Stumbling undressedBlackout drapesWould I be eclectic enoughIf i finished my stays Scratching at the back doorA strayCameo in my dreamYou nearly said you loved me the other day Just out of reach Crumpled ballerinaface shrouded in envytrying not to see you with my eyes shut Being crushedThough you’ll never knowYour rejection may crucify me… Read more

  • July 4th

    A beautiful day and a long drive to panther falls. I wanted to do some swimming and roast marshmallows and I’ve been too precious about preserving memory.

Sometimes, sometimes.          The community garden is untended, everything’s browned in the oven since summer. old dried-out corn husks are strewn across the mulch. I consider… Read more

  • Ratcket

IT DOES FEEL KIND OF EMBARRASSING TO HAVE stuff THAT YOU NEVER REALLY LET GO OF FROM CHILDHOOD, BUT I was a space kid and it lingers. THE FIRST BOOK I REMEMBER MY DAD READING… Read more
