summer light a few candles away from winter
the rain I'd hoped for falling on you instead of me
shrimp tails the best part of the conversation
wordless evenings the brim of your hat coated with dust
bald cypress I could use another set of knees
fork in the road we become separated from our dreams
light-headed the scent of you in the pines
birthday surprise not knowing you'd remember
if opposites attract then we're soulmates
oppressive heat the catalpa leaves retain their coolness
white house insecurity--know that you will soon be fired
affordable care standoff the GOP can't find a better plan*
cactus acupuncture sticking me without a license
*Inspired by the Pearl Jam song, "Better Man."
