3 Baby Birds* 3 baby birds, gripped on the branch And they told me “sigh and don’t worry.” 4 little girls playing double dutch Jump, skip, jump, skip 6 o’ clock on the concrete Autumns breeze flow into me Grandmas chueys words.. “I don’t believe in tomorrow, yesterday, or today.” Because if today is the [...]

It is supposed to be in modernist style Gray leaf Clinging to the edge of the branch of the trunk it holds Watching its fallen brothers discolored in folds Stem running cold, akin to the crunches below Color running, bleeding, clinging Wind falls rushing down to strain it off, off- off Weak in its open [...]

This is what I started with- (I opened the front door stepped outside onto the warm concrete. I stopped, looked around , and listened I could see children playing hop scotch, I could hear birds chirping When I sniffed the air, I could smell the aroma of a fresh rain storm that had just ended [...]
