Don’t even know how.
Don’t ever even wonder.
Not dead. Just don’t care.

the ripened rainstorm
bursts open scatters its seeds
puddles grow on streets

in any size crowd
there’s the burliest gazelle
the skinniest pig

diary orbits
circles of daily routines
written in pencil
These are all fabulous poems but I am especially taken by the “ripened rainstorm”.
I have often felt there is a point where the rainstorm is set to burst but just short of it and it made me think of seedpods, like milkweed. Kapow!
I do love the way your brain makes connections.
Thank you. I am glad you see it as a good thing!
Of course!
