An Exploration of Human Shape and Light
“The healing is a continent
too. It is the tissue
of human faith, the ache
of animal longing. “
Broken Lines
“I could not comprehend how love for someone other than me could be called love for me. Love sees only the beloved, I believed. Two faces turned toward each other alone.”
Field Guide
“By noon, we knew the sun was through with us
and our small adventure. Even the bloodwort,
the tall red ferns, and the L-O-V-E scored
in black paint below the overpass could tell
we knew nothing of them.”
“Here’s a Love Poem to Blueberries” & “Windchimes”
It is just comfort and I am just
thinking. I am always thinking.
There is only so much life
Babe Broke Bobo Again
You don’t know what it means to juxtapose, do you, babe? I want this man who I sleep beside to remember
what he did to Emmett’s face with a size 13 foot.
“Far Gone” & “X-Ray”
They like to
say funny things
and to look at lovely things
and to feel, deeply, things.
