Techno Patterson
I saw him once near Bogan Creek, just as the sun went down. The sky was pink and full of smoke, and the dust rolled off the town. He sat his horse like it was part of him, easy, quiet, sure. Didn’t say much when he passed me by, just nodded. That was pure. His coat had holes, his boots were cracked, his hat...

Love Across the Miles
My cosmos collided with yours, a destined spin You're the melody that completes my skin In dreams, I see our eyes locking tight The universe whispers 'he's yours, this love is right' Our hearts are two guitars playing the same song Beating for each other, where do we belong?

Ode to Him
Ruffles of sand that flash before my eyes in every waking moment Oceans of blue that briefly lift and meet mine My plain, brown eyes, that would blend in the mud And my clothes that never lose the scent of pine Versus his hoodies and the gold chain that hangs around his neck Or the glasses that come and go...
