Urban Renewal
... men unable to catch sparrows without breaking ...
After Summer Fell Apart
... t. You’re at the edge of azaleas ...
Camouflaging the Chimera
... Chameleons crawled our spines, changing from day ...
Yellow Dog Café
... dimes To fill a sock, but only a few pickers ...
Kindness
... drive away the false witnesses, saying, Look, ...
Moonshine
... I’m lonely as those storytellers ...
Islands
... point of view, a figure stands on a rocky ledge ...
Blues Chant Hoodoo Revival
... a bee’s sting inside your heart ...
Yellowjackets
... s Rotten tooth, they swarmed up ...
Confluence
... there’s only tomorrow today where darkness ...
The Shortest Night
... A small boy with a star pinned to his sleeve ...
Sloth
... In this Upside-down haven, you're reincarnated ...
Instructions for Building Straw Huts
... light with straw, earth, mind, bright loom of grain ...
