expansive
under water
cello serenade
tattooed wrist
i am swimming tonight
if only in my mind
i miss the horses in the meadow
the silver light of the moon
falling on equine backs
the distant howl of coydogs
nick drake in my ears
northern sky
once again i am writing poetry
that'll be read by all but the one in question
once again i am picking the snake berries
that grow next to my sand box
I am swinging on metal poles
in lightning storms
wearing rubber boots
