violet blue corolla wrap // a pyre burning bridges to Beijing // steel wires & marionette clotheslines // silences in conversations // hide out in quiet labor // cool, smooth pages of books // stinking puddles, broken hearts // red-throated hummingbird // fabric of human emotions // emoji bar // eyelids like an afterimage // flood fill the lines // behind the dark thing // laws of attraction bending // fire lit Kangchenjunga // archive of memory & musings // safe on brittle ridges // agendas and spreadsheets // detailed reading logs // dark and reeks of gasoline
