Out of time? There is always time. But what do you make time for? That is the real question.
(I’ve loved doodling clocks and clocktowers ever since playing Myst as a kid)

The Window
“Where does the window go?”
she asked, staring through spider web
panes and dusty cross beams.
The world gray
with murky glass
and tiny cracks shot
(to soul)
from edge to edge.
What does the window
see with clouded
eye, transfixed
with grime and dust?
We can’t see out
but the window (your soul)
already could.

and now for something else entirely...
have some popcorn!
(I’m pretty sure the cap, goggles, and chainmail are a direct result of playing Chrono Trigger for several hours on end)

here is a little book that doesn’t know what it’s about is making it up as it goes along, from page to page... but is there a difference?
(i see you watching it as it goes along)
as it grows bit by bit...

Little Book lying open
here is a little book
with a cover made of cherries
stitched through with witchy
tiny threads.
here is a little book
with pages spread wide
flying into the world
quietly.
here is a little book
with a flimsy button clasp
keeping fast the whimsy
tucked inside.
here is a little book
lying open
in your hands

Lakeshore
Wandering the lakeshore on a September day
We wander
hand in hand, along cracked
shale at the water’s lapping edge.
We listen
to the whisper of waves
and humming of the roadway.
She toddles
past pebbles, stoops to pluck
a single bloom from a scraggly stalk.
We step
over latticed roots washed
dry by the lake’s receding tide.
We choose
one rock, then two, till soon
my bag is full, with one corner torn.
She gathers
concrete and kite strings, saves
rusted beer caps and blossoms alike.

A: what's that?
Me: some paper I stitched together.
A: have you written in it yet?
Me: but it doesn't have a cover. (I don't know why this is so important, but it is).
A: ... you could make one.
Me: ...
