With both the midlife and afterlife
Like a tempest, 
It sways us to ruination and obscurity

Why Should I Tolerate

...Why should I tolerate?

You should tolerate
when the girl you loved hugs you.
You can’t breathe.
But respired the heat.

You should tolerate
when the boy you loved holds your hand.
You can’t...

After a Heavy Rainfall

...Banks did not burst, 
just a full bladder of river leaking
into our back yards.

It drooled over 
the low steps of high roots,
into groundhog holes,
into the ditches where winter debri...
