sanded blue kitchen
where worn curtains hang
and french milk paints
the breakfast oatmeal

desires : softer anxieties

to be sky :
odd work for the inner clear
translucent and sealed against the whole.

ALL PICTURES ARE TRUE PICTURES

Reunions.
Family reunions.

Dallas Mavericks, Dallas Stars.
Trash wood rodeo bull shit.

Stacks of wild boar and bobcat bar-b-que,

Cinco de Mayo furniture
of New Mexican pinon.

light bay
in the rolling hills pastured,
his collected gait
have shoes never seen.

half-halts lunge terrain,
soft eye and flowing mane
are streams among the woods.

foal
— beautiful temperament,
different and wild.

with kindness
turns on the fore,
turns on the rear,
backs up bareback —
sensitive and thread-light.
