isolation, longing are like safety porn
------------------------------------------------

(a story in 4 Senryus) Dew gently pools on the rich green Bermuda blades of suburban lawns. Walking across grass soaks your shoes like a splashing child in a puddle. Your passage diagrammed, by wet, green tracks that trace your path like virgin snow. Proof you were here, real, a charming gift watched through chaste glass - that made me cry.

Anais, Very nice 5-7-5 walk where no breadcrumbs were harmed nor needed to find your way home. Blue Fescue FTW. -Richard
