i am all that i sense & experience

mar 12, 25 a squirrel stands guard on a train station bench. it stares me down as i skirt around it, nervous

mar 12, 25 a crow flashes past my vision, soaring low. i snap my head toward him, curious, and see him carrying a cookie-- larger than his head, like a moon in his beak

feb 26, 25 the dentist numbed me with a syringe, and she pushed the plunger slowly, pressing further in on accident with the shake of a hand; i winced each time, moved my head toward her-- toward the pain to avoid more

dec 17, 24 the rough, soothing sensation of each of the keffiyeh's thread against my hand

dec 5, 24 a blood orange sun in the smoggy evening sky

nov 25, 24 my entire torso sore & stretching from this cough. my tender diaphragm.

nov 23, 24 rain falling gently in minecraft; the way i can't stop a grin from stretching across my face as she says 'mwah!' and crouches or complains about how i put my bed too far from hers

nov 17, 24 jane's hips against my own as we dance-- my face steaming up under my mask

nov 15, 24 the full, large, perfectly moon in the sky as i walked my dog in the cold nighttime-- like a coin at the bottom of a bag

nov 15, 24 the rain washed the raccoon's blood off the road today; i feel like i need to hold another internal funeral

nov 15, 24 i held a bag of groceries tight to my chest, and the wind blew hard against us both

nov 15, 24 dark clouds covered most of the sky, hiding most of the sun from the mountains-- dark and gloomy-- but just a little bit of sun from across the sky shone across a patch of the mountainside. warmth amongst cool darkness

nov 10, 24 the sun warmed & prickled my left cheek through the driver's side window, and i listened to june henry-- sitting in silence with a weight growing in my chest
