Simply Be
Don’t want to always exists – sometimes just want to be
Surpassed by the Gesture
I love gifts until I become attached to them and am forced to confront theirs and my own eventual decay
By Myself
I like the lonesome drive home
Shedding
Maybe I’ll get a new brush for Alexander
Three Minutes
Ready, set, write!
Bow
2/9/20 Sundays are boxes with bows: mysteries glammed up to entice a willing explorer to take a chance. True, the box is not wrapped, just bowed. So maybe the cardboard exterior isn’t the prettiest, but the pow—a twist and turn of pink & purple ribbon—makes any beige cube rather intriguing.
