remembering
going door to door begging
for candy
Month: October 2018
10/30/18: A Gust And
a downpour
of leaves like new fire
falling
10/29/18: Knowing You’ll Forget
thinking of dunes and
how the wind abrades sand and
how it must let it
10/28/17: Wondering, “Why Do I Care So Much About the Aliens’ Intentions?”
birds have ever been
watching—but I never saw them
as waiting
10/27/18: Indigence
what if all these
people sleeping in doorways
are fallen angels?
10/26/18: How to Reach Here
expect
little and do so much more
less
10/25/18: Precipitous Thinking
despite being told
to spot the landing before
leaping—my eyes close
10/24/18: The Month Moves On
time marching or
nibbling at some store of food
meant for later?
10/23/18: First Frost Gathers on Windshields
their lattice
seems ever to be lurking—
hidden language
10/22/18: Dear Mr. President,
please, silence—or
spare me the moments between
bed and sleep
