soft fur...........................A flock of Monarch butterflies
soared over my head.
a white shirt........................I should have stopped at Kentucky
Fried Chicken, I thought
warm
milk......................
the sound of water.........
rain................................
cold water......................as unseen birds sang in the distance.
brown and gold bottles of beer
................. The eggplant and cheese on my cold
pizza had congealed.
....................I put the pizza back in the paper
bag
brown grass
on the hills...
sleep...............................and poured the remains of a
bottle
of Pete's Wicked Ale
a flowered dress..............into the mud.
low flying planes.............
the smell of green grass....
warm sun.........................
appearing in the blackberry bushes...............
making things....................
blue shirt.......................
making love......................
the children laughing..........
coming home........................
potato soup......................
unwashed windows...........
the pine trees overhead......
walking.............................
riding................................
the horizon........................
